About 

Architectural Designer with experience across all phases of design & documentation, focused on large-scale, oft fast-tracked projects in higher education, S&T, government, corporate office & campus planning. Thrives when surrounded by easygoing individuals in a high-intensity, high-design environment. Firmly believes in the ability and responsibility of architecture to positively affect the way people interact with and understand the world around them, and that each design challenge requires examination from a unique perspective.
