Architecture and Design, among other industries, has the ability to enhance human life and experience. I grew up being a very tactile person. I have always been interested in the minute details. When I encounter something new I enjoy figuring out how it was created and what the first few steps were, which relates to my interest in infrastructure. Everything and everyone has a history. In all of my work and life choices I intentionally think fifty steps ahead. Questions unfold about the future life of an idea and how it will create a benefit. Brainstorming these ideas and concerns with friends and colleagues is stimulating to me. Bringing minds together to find possible answers that lead to a final product is a wonderful thing. Lastly, I consider myself a lifelong learner. My goal is to learn as much as I can about the world around me and transform that education into substance.
