My name is Paige, and I am a graduate candidate at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. I am originally from Ellicott City, Maryland, but have found places to call home even when so far away. I have been doing lighting since my freshman year of high school, and it has always been my happy place. I am ecstatic to be able to learn more every day doing something I love. I'm always looking for the next opportunity to explore what is possible in the lighting world. It's so incredible being able to be in an industry that is always changing and reinventing itself with every new fixture that comes out. I also enjoy learning all about the other areas of theatre and how to further their vision. Other than theatre, I also enjoy studying philosophy, watercolor painting, and thrift shopping.
