About 

I am LEED certified and authorized to test for the ARE. I enjoy all aspects of architecture and thrive in studying and mastering new technologies. Currently, I am the Design Chair for Jenkintown Design Review Board and am also a member of the Jenkintown Planning Commission.

I lived in Key West, FL for nine years where my work focused on historic restoration, custom homes, facade improvements, residential and commercial additions, hotels, and entertainment establishments. After returning to Philadelphia, I continued to expand my portfolio and have produced a wide range of projects including restaurant design, hospital renovations, and small commercial and office buildings.
