Stepping Into a Historic Stage! Joining USA 829

Updated: Feb 28


I am officially joining United Scenic Artists, Local USA 829, as a Projection Designer.

This opens the door to opportunities in Broadway musicals, opera, and other major productions, where I can contribute my work at the highest professional standards.


More importantly, it is recognition from my peers for the level of work I’ve achieved and the 17 years I’ve devoted to this craft.


Being part of a union also provides proper protection for authorship, fair working conditions, and creative rights. These are values I hold strongly as a designer.


I am deeply grateful to the industry professionals who endorsed me for membership in USA 829, and to all my clients over the past decade. Your guidance and trust made this possible.


I am honored to begin this new chapter as a member of this historic 129 year-old organization.

I look forward to shaping the future of visual storytelling and technological innovation for stage and live entertainment.
