CBS Sunday Morning profiled me as part of its annual By Design issue, exploring the artistry, creativity, and meticulous process behind my domino creations. Correspondent David Pogue joined me to discuss the patience and perseverance required to design and build intricate structures with thousands of dominoes - and ultimately bring them to life through the chain reaction.
Discovery Channel worked with The TODAY Show to invite actor Bruce Campbell on set to promote the re-booted Ripley’s Believe It Or Not! series. I joined actor Bruce Campbell, the new host for the Ripley’s series, in Studio 1A where I built a special domino setup, created just for TODAY.
