About Ron:

A Professional Lighting Designer and Integrator for nearly 20 years, Ron Kuszmar oversees the Architectural and Theatrical Lighting Design & Installation departments, as well as the Lighting Control Systems and Equipment Sales teams for Port. At age 16, Ron’s lifelong love of the arts drew him to work in community theater, where he discovered the magic of lighting. Captured by the limitless, distinct-yet-nuanced ambiances created by combinations of color, shadow, and gradients of white light, Ron met his destined career path.

Though Ron works nationwide with Port, notable recent local projects include underpass installations for Lynn Beyond Walls, Boston’s One Financial Center façade, continuous special presentation lighting for the Boston Bruins, Boston Celtics, and an ongoing array of projects for TD Garden, encompassing game lighting and controls, special arena effects, building-wide controls, a comprehensive color-changing aisle lighting upgrade installation, and exterior color-changing lighting. An ETCP- Certified Entertainment Electrician and Theater Rigger, ETC-Certified Field Technician, and Hoist Installer (certified by multiple manufacturers), Ron lives north of Boston with his wife and young daughters.
