"I love telling stories with light."
When not lighting plays Jesse loves spending time with his amazing wife and two beautiful children. I have been so so fortunate in my life to travel to so many different places. He has played 5 continents, and been to dozens of countries all with unbelievable people, art and culture. But what he enjoys most is being at home with my family and watching my kids grow up. Jesse currently lives in Sherwood, Oregon (just outside of Portland). He teaches lighting design at Linfield University in McMinnville, Oregon.
