A 2ft square infinity mirror cube on a hand-built metallic stand with a Game of Thrones-esque aesthetic. Full LED integration with WLED control. Equal parts art object and conversation piece.

About
I've been a DC Burner since 2015 — I love going to events to help setup and get things running. It's where I feel most alive: task-driven, communal, hands-on, always building toward something collective.
My LED work started many years ago, but recently took off starting with a 2ft Infinity Cube and hasn't stopped since. The Infinity Crystal Gateway grew out of a simple question: what does it feel like to walk through a threshold and have the world change around you? I'm still chasing that feeling in new forms.
By day I've spent 25+ years in IT — infrastructure, DevOps, cloud architecture across organizations like Intel, and The American Red Cross. The technical depth feeds the making. Every build is a systems problem wrapped in light and fabricated material.
I'm interested in the intersection of technology and the natural world. The things I build tend to reflect that — tools for human connection, objects that invite presence, spaces that feel alive.
