on work Architectural projects set the framework for the fabric of life, allowing communities to build within and between them as they see the need.

I am interested not only in the places created in response to a project’s specific goals, but also those places clients and users discover and create for themselves after the designers and contractors have made their marks.

about me I have lived in numerous locations in the United States and Germany.

I have a great appreciation for diverse peoples, cultures and places and view the work of architecture as a multi-disciplinary collaborative act.

While completing my graduate studies, I lived in residence at the Vicenza Institute: Architecture, researching material for my Masters Research Project sited in Padua, Italy, at the University of Padua, where Galileo taught and studied the Heavens.

Since 1985, I have lived and worked in Florida, which has greatly influenced my interests in wounds, ruins, representation, reality and actuality, mythos, practical praxis, inference and notation.
