I am an Architect, Designer, and Project Manager and I draw inspiration from 25 years of experience working in the richly varied urban environments of Kansas City, MO; New York, NY; Portland, OR; and now Richmond, VA.

Growing up in the rural countryside of Iowa has given me a unique perspective on urban environments and the features that make them most livable. I have a passion for the outdoors and believe my work designing dense, livable urban cities is crucial to preventing suburban encroachment into rural agricultural and wilderness regions.
