I am:
-An architectural designer with significant experience in the design and planning of complex buildings both ground-up and renovations/rehabilitations throughout New York City.
-A self-starter, comfortable in taking initiative and leading project teams.
-A good listener; a firm believer that this is the essential skill of a good designer and architect.
-Comfortable working at different scales, from master planning of several mixed use buildings on one site, to designing details of a storefront or building lobby entrance. I find that even the smallest scale projects present great challenges and fuel my creativity.
-Always keen to sketch my ideas on a piece of trace paper. I find this an invaluable tool of communication with my peers and collaborators.
-Ready for the next challenge laying ahead...
