My approach to design is collaborative, conceptual, & multidisciplinary. I have a strong appreciation for both theoretical & formal reasoning and a passion for socially & environmentally conscious design.
My experience has primarily been on the hospitality sector and I am especially grateful to have helped bring to life beloved restaurant environments.
