Driven by a passion for what architecture brings to our world through design, communication, and impact to our environment, I brings more than 17 years of experience in the AEC Industry. With a focus overseeing Marketing and Business Development for locally-, nationally-, and globally-reaching firms, departments, and initiatives, I began my career as a designer after earning a Bachelor of Landscape Architecture from Clemson University. Since then, I have collaborated on complex public and private projects from a diverse range of scales and regional contexts with roles in design, marketing and communications, and business development. My education and experience enable me to understand the dynamics between clients, design firms, and the successful execution of projects, and complements the realization of marketing and business development endeavors.I am actively involved in industry organizations, including the Society for Marketing Professional Services (where I served on the board of the New York Chapter), Professional Women in Construction, the Center for Architecture in NY, and the New York American Institute of Architects. In 2010, as a response to the devastating earthquake in Haiti, I founded a non-profit organization, Build.Found., committed to providing sustainable design and construction support to third-world organizations and communities in need.
