Career Portfolio

I am fortunate to be a practicing architect in Cleveland during one of the city’s most fertile growth eras. My twenty years of experience in the field includes being involved with the marketing and contract negotiation of a project, its conceptual planning, design, documentation and construction phases. I manage project teams, including varied consultants, and work closely with the client to ensure that the project goals are met. My newly-established company is devoted to improving life in the city through smart design, encompassing architecture and other creative pursuits.
