As a puppeteer, I do lots of things that sort of defy easy categorization. Well, that's what this page is for. I've been a designer/builder for other people, done lots of live appearances for projects big and small, and generally plied my trade as a puppeteer and creative person everywhere I could. On this page you'll find links to samples of some of those varied efforts.

Avenue Q, the Tony Award-winning musical for which I designed and built the puppets,
