Senior Design Lead Architect with 30 years of experience. I am passionate about design and problem solving. I have had the opportunity to design and collaborate on a wide range of complex projects involving different types of new structures, additions and modernization programs as well as master planning. Most of my experience has been in the fields of Educational and Healthcare facilities. My experience in collaborating across disciplines and my ability to communicate with design teams and clients has always ensured well-coordinated and designed projects.
