About 

I have extensive experience as a project designer managing all aspects of a project from A-Z; as well as being a LEED accredited professional and with experience coordinating the certification of projects. I have completed several different project types from LEED platinum housing to the transformation of a historic airplane hanger into a trampoline gym. I also have a breath of experience with digital modeling and drafting. Currently I am working for Edmonds + Lee Architects. Before that I worked for Mark Horton Architecture for 4 years and then with the Puccini Group designing restaurants. Furthermore, I have worked with NAXSMATH productions where I composed digital models and videos for installations at various galleries. Before that I worked construction as a framer at Tri West Builders.
