About 

I gradutated with a Professional Arch Degree(w/ Honors) in 2000.   Currently building my own home in Commack NY, Working full time @ AVGA Architects / Kean Development, (Traditional Home Building) and taking the ARE. I Am Married with two boys (4 & 1).  Grew up in a family of builders and tradesman and have worked in the construction industry my entire life.  I have 15+ years of experience as an architect.

My architectural approach is centered on a full visual exploration of formal possibility.  My design parameters build upon historic values of inspired grace, harmonic movement and balance for both interior and exterior spatial consistency.  Dedicated to clients’ unique needs and expectations as well as pragmatic concerns, I offer an appropriate range of project management skills from first sketches to certificate of occupancy. I believe that effortlessness of form and integrity of material are the essence of the humanization of the environment in which we inhabit.  It is that commitment that guides my architectural process.
