About 

Growing up in New York City, I was always interested in the interaction of surrounding architecture in relation to the things around it which has the ability to capture the history of a place. The desire to be among those who create the changing skylines that form our cities. Architecture has a story, and these stories exist by the architectural design that forms a visual and spatial link to the past, present, and future. Norman Foster once said, “As an architect you design for the present, with an awareness of the past, for a future which is essentially unknown.'' The best way to create the buildings of tomorrow that preserve the ideas of today. Someday, we will be judged by what we leave behind.
