About 

Educated as an Architect, I have constantly applied my detail-oriented design process to everything I do, constantly seeking new ways to graphically represent the projects we design and develop.  Designing and building, to me, is a learning experience.  Seeking out new opportunities to learn from the people I am working with is a goal on every project. Within a team environment, I value any opportunity to share my own knowledge with others while enriching my own background in ways I hadn't visualized.
