About Me
Jacob Steen- Lighting Designer
I am a lighting designer and technician based out of Minneapolis, MN. I graduated from the University of Minnesota, Duluth, receiving a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Lighting Design in May 2025.​
​
I have been involved in theatre since I was 6 years old, joining a local community theater as an actor. When I was 14, I was asked to be a spotlight for the second act of Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. I instantly fell in love. I then started to work on set building and painting for my middle school and then high school theatre, eventually transitioning to lighting as my main area of interest.
​
I am currently working as a Lighting Field Technician at Norcostco Minneapolis. After joining in May 2025, I have traveled to schools and community theatres around MN, WI, IA, ND and SD installing ETC architectural and theatrical lighting systems and fixtures.
