I view Architecture not only as an art and profession, but an
opportunity to alter our physical world. Design has a
personal relationship with people, and I seek to further
understand and explore it, while creating tangibly responsible
changes in the built environment. Through the refinement of
my craft, I intend to continue learning and making.
I studied Architecture at Virginia Tech's College Of Architecture + Urban Studies, and through our residency program in Riva San Vitale, Switzerland at the Center for European Studies and Architecture.
I love photography, typology, and the art of cooking--though I cannot claim expertise at any!
