Raised in the Washington, DC area, John has made the Boston area his home since graduating from Wesleyan University.  His entire professional career has involved lighting, first as a theatrical designer, then as a film gaffer, and ultimately guiding the growth of High Output, which builds on those interests by supporting a wide range of visual arts and entertainment projects.

John believes that the success of High Output is the result of the talented team that the firm has been able to attract, mentor, and retain.  He finds value in promoting from within our ranks and is proud of the number of co-workers celebrating 10, 15, and even 25 years of service.

Throughout his career, John has understood that volunteer service is essential to the health of our professional and residential communities and remains committed to using his experience and resources to further the goals of the groups he supports.  He continues to serve as a board member at the Massachusetts Production Coalition, the Entertainment Services & Technology Association, Brighter Boston, and the Huntington Theatre Company.

Jim is a 1981 graduate of Syracuse University with a major in Communications. In 1986, he co-founded High Output, Inc., where he has been able to utilize his creative and technical experiences to meet the varied needs of a broad-based clientele.
