Architect | Planner | Consultant | Geographer
Design, at its best, is solving problems.
Planning identifies problems, determines resources, and directs a course of action.
Consulting is communicating and helping.
Geography is understanding our world.
These are the tools and disciplines I've chosen to hopefully help people and the environment - natural and built, local and global.
We each get one soul, one life. Let's strive to truly live and love - make things better.
There is still more we haven’t done than what we have, more we haven’t seen than what we have, and more we don’t know than what we do.
