Partner in charge of business development and marketing efforts, led international projects and directed the creative design process. I brought a business-minded approach, looking for unique ways to balance profitability, design excellence, and a dedication to social, environmental, and economic sustainability. Helped develop a team focused design approach and strong company culture. My international experience includes working on projects Canada, Japan, Germany, China, and Russia. I've lead diverse teams of stakeholders, consultants, and designers to deliver complex projects on time and on budget. With a focus on domestic and international retail, commercial, and housing projects, my work ranges from sensitively increasing density through the design of Accessory Dwelling Units and multi-family housing, to working with clients to develop compelling retail environments and commercial developments. I have led the design of retail and hospitality projects in Japan, collaborating with local officials and design teams; have worked on large scale commercial developments in China, Russia, and Germany; and dabbled in small scale development, leading negotiations with developers and real estate brokers on a range of projects. My design work responds to the context in which we build, integrating our buildings into each unique community, responding to climate, culture, and local materials. With each project, I explore the intricacies of the program, the unique aspects of each site, and an intimate understanding of the project budget and the client's brand, goals, or lifestyle, to develop a strong concept that I follow through the project’s completion.I am passionate about what I do, and believe design holds immense power to engage people, captivate our imaginations, and make our world a better place. My mission is to carefully wield my creative ideas and design skills to deliver beautiful projects for our clients on a global scale.
