Licensed in 2003, I have been working in the design field for over 14 years. Starting out in the commercial interiors industry allowed me to develop skills in space planning, designing custom cabinetry, and most importantly managing large scale projects. I have completed residential, commercial and multi-family projects ranging from custom condos on Lake Travis to high rise student housing projects around the country, and even an award winning Eco-Friendly trade show booth that inspired Bono, of U2 fame, to tell us what the word "Green" means to him.
