About 

Colorado native. Mexican food enthusiast. Bibliophile. Unapologetic dreamer.   

I am an independent and introverted person blessed with a boundless curiosity. Constantly searching for new information, adventures, and challenges, I strive to see the world as it could be, instead of as it is. I believe that architecture is a story, written through the experiences of those that interact with it. As such, I hope to reconnect people with place through the application of subjects such as phenomenology, critical regionalism, biophilia, and designing for diversity.
