About me

As a student of architecture, I am driven to create spaces that work well, are easy and efficient to use, and at the same time they are humane and comforting for the visitor. Each building must be a home, a shelter, a refuge in its own way, that is the primary reason they exist. As technology and world-view evolves, humanity finds novel ways to utilize materials in a way that is of the most benefit. While we learn from the great masters of the past, we need to remember to put their principles in the context of today's capabilities, thereby deeply appreciating their tradition of being an innovator. These are what make me eager to keep learning the art and science of organizing spaces and forms, also known as architecture.

Practicing art, I am inspired to discover ways the Universe expresses itself in form. I am intrigued to find new methods of communicating feelings, beauty, and order. Each shape, color, pattern, or designing principle reflects a distinct quality. As I see it, the artist’s job is to make that quality crystal clear, to help the viewer regard what needs to be seen, and to facilitate a moment of understanding and reflection.
