Bio

I'm a designer and builder in Thomasville, Georgia. After twenty-five years in trade shows and experiential design, I'm still a student of the craft — drawing from theater, architecture, motion, print, and the hundreds of foremen and fabricators who taught me how things actually get built.

Born in Marietta, Georgia in 1975. I studied theatrical design before discovering that trade shows were essentially the same problem on a tighter timeline.

Today I run SQUAREONE and XpoMonkey, and co-founded Morgan Hill Media with my wife Elizabeth Cantrell.
