About 

I believe in simplicity and holistic design approaches examined through new technologies and the art of making. Through my education I focused on the importance of multi-disciplinary approaches to design, in order to generate a more holistic and refined architecture. Currently I find myself working in the world of complex architectural fabrication, focused on furthering the process and practice of design from the perspective of a fabricator.

Besides my love for design I enjoy kayaking, hiking, playing golf, woodworking and digital fabrication. I also enjoy graphic design, and am continuously working on my graphic communication.
