I approach design as a blend of art and technical craft. With an eye for detail and a passion for excellence, I leverage my strengths in communication, organization, interdisciplinary collaboration, and Building Information Modeling (BIM) to lead project teams through all phases from conceptual design through construction. I love to learn and am constantly looking for new ways to stretch myself, add to my experience, and serve others. I believe in the power of integrated practice - bringing together all disciplines including architecture, interiors, landscape, engineering, and graphics to create sustainable, beautiful spaces that address the needs of a diverse population and improve people's lives.
