I studied architecture, material science engineering, and photography at The Ohio State University. I have been working on high-end residential & retail projects for the past decade. I have a well-rounded knowledge of architecture, construction, and interior design. I am interested in creating a better world through design for people to live, work and play.
I create graphic presentations that support the design team in closing large project contracts. I manage projects from the initial design schematic through construction by organizing the project timeline and budget, producing project deliverables, and collaborating with the clients, contractors, designers, vendors and manufacturers.
