I am an architect and designer from Chicago IL. As an architect I strive to use my expertise and talents to create environments that not only solve basic needs, but create a sense of meaning and place, contributing to the sustainability of the communities in which we live in. As a city dweller, I dislike cars, and would prefer the companionship of Elaine, my hunter green single speed bicycle. I am married to my wife Brittany and in my free time, I enjoy wood working, graphic design, and baseball.
