Drew Miner LC

Drew Miner joined The Lighting Practice’s Dallas team in 2022, as a Senior Lighting Designer. Drew earned his Bachelor’s in Architecture at the University of Texas at Arlington. After working for several architectural firms, Drew found more interest in retailers, as he found store design lighting more engaging. He also enjoyed assisting in lowering energy usage, and the idea of leaving a little more energy behind for future generations. When he’s not designing, Drew enjoys having friends over for meals, getting active in his community, and gardening and home improvement projects.
