I am an Architect, Artist, and Musician. During my undergraduate and professional career, I’ve committed to a diverse range of creative processes to gain a comprehensive view of how our environment is captured and experienced. My goal is to design while studying interdisciplinary intersections between art and the built environment. My work displays an understanding of research, modeling, and diagramming, to articulate space and “place” in different landscapes and cultural contexts. I have learned to see design as the desire to build better experiences with tools for living. From that idea, I work to create more personal and personable designs.
