Hope you’re not expecting one of those cryptic, nonsensical descriptions. Not my style.

I’m Craig, a happy little sound engineer, lighting designer and licensed pyrotechnician. I recently toured with Superchic[k] as the lighting designer, and I’m currently serving as lighting designer for the fabulous country rock ' roll extravaganza Terri Clark.

I was the technical director at a church in midwestern Iowa for two years, and I got to manage about the best group of “church roadies” I think I could have asked for. I help out at my current church, Mosaic, running sound and playing keys every now and then. I adore live sound and concert lighting, and just about anything with faders or blue LEDs. I also love children, fireworks, blueberry muffins, playing with my XBox 360 and reading. I’ve played the piano since I was too short to reach the pedals and I’m learning the violin, and probably the guitar (acoustic and electric variants) as well. Thursday, you’ll find me volunteering at Vanderbilt Children’s Hospital in the pediatric ER.

When I’m not on the road, I live in Nashville, Tennessee.

I'm easy to get along with, so tell me about yourself! If you read any of my entries and have a comment, feel free to leave one - I love getting feedback about the stuff I write. If instant messaging is your thing, I’m on AOL Instant Messenger at screen name LCARS53648332. I like chatting with just about anybody, especially people I don’t know - so don’t be shy.
