About 

NCARB Registered Architect, licensed in the great state of California since 2018. 

An early affinity for drawing and a curiosity as to how things are assembled naturally lead towards a career in architecture. Working with my hands all my life, my mission is to bridge the gap between the lines on the paper and the builder on the jobsite.
