About 

I have a Masters in Interior Architecture from University of Oregon, and a Bachelor of Arts in Art History from Whitman College. My design-related interests include educational spaces, social and non-programmed spaces, color, architectural history, and relationships between emotion and architecture. I enjoy working in groups where people bring diverse skills to the table.
