About 

I consider myself an adventurous and inspired, yet practical, visionary. My interests lie beyond architecture; specifically, they encompass humanitarian design and sustainable urbanism.

My personal and professional goal is this: Make people's lives easier, healthier and happier through the built environment.

I'm looking to work with people who want to accomplish the same.

 

I also enjoy snowboarding, craft beer, reading, running, cooking, traveling, and meeting new people.
