I hold an undergraduate degree in Architecture and a Masters in Urban Design, with 15 years of experience within the respective fields. Throughout my career, which includes 10 years in New York, I worked closely with ownership, city agencies, consultants, and contractors in a range of projects including interior renovations, high-rise residential, as well as mixed-use development.
In addition to my architectural design experience, I’ve been involved with urban design firms, such as Terreform Inc. a non-profit (501.C. 3) organization started by Michael Sorkin, dedicated to research and design of just and sustainable architecture and urbanism.
I believe my work experience has exposed me to a wide-range of projects in terms of program and scale, as well as an understanding of the design and construction process necessary to meet the needs of clients.

New York City (Steady) State
The planet is in crisis and the city can and must be a central medium of renewal. New York City (Steady) State is an alternative plan for New York City based on a single predicate: it is possible for the city to become almost entirely self-sufficient within its political boundaries. Our nine areas of study - energy, building, movement, social economics, water, food, air and climate, waste, and manufacturing - each assess the history and development of the system, and the current demand and supply behavior of New York City as a point of departure for reinventing our city's metabolisms. The project will investigate the social, environmental, and morphological consequences of a steady state for New York while compiling an inventory of available and likely technologies, infrastructures, and architectures; it will serve as a model for cities everywhere, at any stage of their ambitions to take greater responsibility for their own consumption and respiration.

39571 Infowash
Designed and constructed by students in an academic design/build program, 39571 InfoWash is a direct response to the devastation caused by Hurricane Katrina in the small town of DeLisle, Mississippi. In an attempt to meet both the physical and emotional needs of the community, the project houses both a 24-hour Laundromat and an organization which provides rebuilding assistance to local residents. The simple task of washing one’s clothes thus provides immediate relief while easing community members into the long and complicated process of reconstruction. Because of its program and context, 39571 InfoWash has a responsibility to provide a physically and psychologically sheltered realm, while at the same time projecting an open and inviting presence to its community.
