At its core, lighting is the essence of all life. Aside from being something humans rely on for survival, its emotional impact on the world is just as resonant. While intangible, light can persuade someone to feel—a force that is capable of guiding the human heart to experience immense joy, sudden sadness, or unimaginable discovery about oneself and the world around them. How lucky am I to have a hand in that? To help shape someone's time in this world. Plus, lighting is just cool as hell, and I'm a nerd.
