Design Build & Architecture
The design-build and architecture world has been thread throughout my life and career. Since 1998, I have been integrated within the field of architecture through early internships with local architecture firms to art director and digital roles with firms in Delaware and Washington DC. Design-build also found its way into my career starting with a degree in industrial design, a design-build role at Amtrak, and personal experiences renovating houses and building custom furniture over the last 10 years. With a design degree and the thinking processes of an engineer, this focus is at the core of everything I do.
AREAS OF EXPERTISE: CUSTOM BUILDING & FURNITURE, ARCHITECTURAL DRAFTING, VISUALIZATION & DETAILING, CONSTRUCTION METHODOLOGY
