My goal is to practice outstanding and enjoyable design work while enhancing a wide knowledge and skill base that I have developed through direct experience in construction, formal education, and 30+ years in the construction industry.I started as an 11 year old who's job it was to roll up extension cords for my dad's contracting company, so have seen this industry from many angles and played many roles in making buildings, but regardless of my position on a given project I consider myself a builder and part of a 'crew'. I am currently managing multiple teams on design, planning, production, and construction management of world-class projects across many sectors and scales of architecture at $50-$200MM. Extensive experience working with staff teams from 2-20 on a given project.I am passionate first about Design, then Craftsmanship and Quality. Improving digital innovation, creative thinking, effective communication and management, and learning from prior projects and peers are intentional daily efforts in refining my practice.Personally I pursue Design in different ways, exploring furniture, art, and smaller building projects using Design-Build Practices, haptic and iterative creation, place-making in nature, and creative reuse. Whether working on designer chicken coops or 500,000 SF offices, I want to advance my professions ability to remain relevant and positively change the world through creativity and teamwork. I strive to innovate and improve beyond 'standard practices'.My ethos is to build thoughtful and beautiful things that help humanity.
