New IALD Southeast United States Chapter Coordinators Announced
The IALD proudly welcomes three new volunteer IALD Region + Chapter Coordinators in a very special role.
The newly-formed IALD Southeast United States Chapter will benefit from the talents and energy of these incredible individuals:
- Carrie Walker, Assoc. IALD, has been in the lighting industry since 2008, originating as a light artist. As an Atlanta, Georgia-based Associate with CD+M Lighting Design Group, her favorite thing about light is how it appears to breathe life into a space or object.
- Jeff Brown, IALD, is a nationally recognized designer in the lighting industry. At Tampa, Florida's Power Design, Inc., Jeff is the Lighting Design Studio Manager leading a talented, creative team of ten professional lighting designers.
- Kate Sanoke, Assoc. IALD, has been an invaluable lighting design asset to EXP for over sixteen years in the Orlando, Florida area. A highly designated and accredited lighting designer, she views the profession as the perfect mix of technical and creative: providing innovative solutions within the confines of environments with fundamental technical parameters and design criteria.
The new IALD Southeast U.S. Chapter will be well-served by their volunteer time and effort, and the IALD community worldwide will improve through their participation in this vital role.
In conjunction with its formation, the newly established chapter will host a kick-off meeting via videoconference on 31 May 2024. The agenda will include introductions by the three coordinators and an overview of what the chapter looks to accomplish in its first year. Those wanting to join the meeting can register online up to the start time of noon Eastern that day.
