About 

I graduated from Clemson University in 2002 with a Bachelor of Science in Design (Architecture).  For the past 10 years I have been employed in the architectural profession.  A majority of my professional experience has been in the design of high end custom residences located in South Carolina.  I have been an integral project team member of multiple regional and national award winning and publicized residences.  Currently I am seeking an employment opportunity that will allow me the opportunity to build upon and expand my experience.
