About 

I am actively seeking a challenging career in architecture.  Practicing for over 30 years in the design and construction industry, I have experience in all facets of architecture - from design and planning through construction.  My portfolio of work includes custom single and multifamily residential housing, senior housing and assisted living facilities, corporate, commercial, and industrial building types. 

My experience begins with working in a family owned general contracting/developer business.  I understand the importance of teamwork, leadership, budgets, and deadlines, assuring the success of a project.  I have knowledge of the building and zoning codes of local governments as well as federal codes.  I have the ability to simultaneously manage multiple projects.
