His work has been used on the stage of the american music awards and in the film star trek: generations as well as on hgtv. Presently, he teaches philosophy at palomar college in the san diego area and maintains a small studio in his home designing and producing “light sculptures” with his wife alessandra for homes, restaurants, hospitals, businesses, and religious institutions throughout the country.
