I have travelled the world over the years and have always been moved by the people and cultures I have encountered. I pay close attention to details of architecture and site and am truly inspired when I see the two come together harmoniously. As I expand my practice, I hope to blend my skills in fine art and design with my passion for craft and precision. Every detail matters, which is why paying attention to those details and enhancing their unique forms results in spaces that are memorable and meaningful. Whether on a residential or civic project, I allow my personal experience and unique sensibilities to guide my straightforward design process. This process results in usable yet sophisticated spaces that distinctively reflect the needs and desires of clients. I hope to use my strong communication skills and professionalism to engage clients and to become a valued member of a dynamic firm.
