I bring a decade of experience as a graphic artist, and a Master's of Architecture, to the search for aesthetically, environmentally and economically preferable green solutions. I am passionate about great design from big picture to small detail.
In addition to architecture, I have a great deal of construction experience, 2+ years in recovery work (post-Hurricane Sandy), and 3+ years in architectural forensics. I am proud to have earned certification as a Passive House Consultant and also as a Passive House Tradesperson.
