About 

I hold quality design in high regard and am always seeking opportunities to grow as a designer. I have experience working with my hands and enjoy spending time on site. I grew up in Boulder, Colorado and continue to foster an avid appreciation for the outdoors. I am currently pursuing work in New York City, having completed my Masters of Architecture at the University of Michigan in May, 2015.

Awards 

Honorable Mention, Hines 2015: ROOTED, Honorable Mention

"It is my pleasure to congratulate you as one of the recipients of an Honorable Mention on this year’s ULI Hines Competition. Your submission “Rooted” has been recognized by the jury in particular for “its clear and cogent schematic process, and for a cohesive and thorough healthy environment vision.”

In such a competitive year, receiving an Honorable Mention from the jury is a remarkable achievement in itself. Later this week ULI will issue a press release outlining the 4 finalists, and the 8 honorable mentions selected by the jury from a pool of 120 participating teams, comprising 60 universities from the United States and Canada. In the following days we should be featuring this information on our website, with associated posts reflecting the different projects being recognized.

We are particularly grateful for receiving submissions of this caliber that offer such intellectual stimulation, and help explore the mission and priorities that the Hines Competition and the Urban Land Institute support."
