I wish to advance the art and science of humane and sustainable design
through collaborative, evidence - based design.
I am particularly interested in architecture as habitat,
as western peoples now spend upwards of 90% of their lives
within the confines of the built environment.
If design is an outcome of understanding,
what do we understand about human habitat
for at this point in history, that is what we now design.

I act as Lead Designer and in a collaborative or supporting role with other architects throughout all the phases of a design and construction.
I use BIM technology to create schematic and construction documents, and to create highly compelling renderings / visualizations for clients and financiers.
I research building codes, materials and specifications and engage with clients, contractors, engineers, and government officials.
Current and past projects include:
Seven residential projects with involvement ranging through
BIM, Schematic, DD, CD's, renderings, and client relations.
A current project is large high end residence for the president of a high tech corporation.
