Drill Design, Visual Consulting and Color Guard Choreography

About Me

I’m a visual designer and choreographer specializing in marching band drill writing, visual consulting, and color guard choreography. My work is rooted in clarity, musicality, and creating moments that feel intentional from the first set to the final impact.

I’ve served as a color guard choreographer and visual concept designer for multiple KMEA State Champion programs, numerous state finalists, and a former Bands of America Class A National Champion. Collaborating with high-achieving programs has allowed me to help shape shows that are both artistically strong and competitively successful.

Drill writing wasn’t originally the plan. I had taken on a new group to choreograph their guard, and when the need for drill arose, a mentor I deeply respect encouraged the director to trust what I could bring to the table. I stepped in at the last minute and wrote the drill for that program. Just a couple of seasons later, the group advanced to KMEA State Finals for the first time in school history.

What began as an unexpected opportunity quickly revealed itself as a natural extension of my visual instincts. Designing the full picture, not just one layer of it, changed everything.

Clarity over clutter. Purpose over filler. Moments that make people feel something.

Whether I’m writing drill, shaping visual identity, or choreographing guard, my goal is the same: create a show that feels unified, intentional, musical, and above all, competitive.

Every program is different, and I’m always excited to collaborate, explore ideas, and help bring a strong vision to life.
