About me…

I am an architectural designer based in California, focused on creating thoughtful residential environments shaped by the people who live in them. My work is grounded in a simple belief: meaningful design begins with understanding how individuals experience space.

I studied Architecture at California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo, where I developed a strong foundation in design thinking, construction, and spatial problem-solving. Since then, my professional experience has spanned both Commercial and Residential architecture, allowing me to work across different scales, project types, and design challenges; from conceptual design through permitting and construction coordination.

What continues to inspire me most about architecture is its human dimension. Every project brings a distinct story. I value the process of understanding how people truly live; how they move through space, what brings them comfort, what inspires them, and what ultimately makes a place feel like home. Designing for diverse ways of living is a challenge I deeply enjoy, allowing each project to become a tailored response rather than a predetermined aesthetic.

My professional approach intentionally expands beyond conventional architectural practice. Through architecture, architectural photography, and real estate development, I explore the built environment from multiple complementary perspectives, strengthening my understanding of how spaces are designed, executed, and experienced over time. I am passionate about engaging with projects across their entire lifecycle — from the first spark of an idea to the moment a completed environment becomes part of someone’s everyday life.

I believe strong architecture grows from collaboration, trust, and genuine understanding, guided by a strong commitment to responsibility, clear timelines, and quality execution. I strive to balance creativity with disciplined project management, ensuring that each space reflects its inhabitants while honoring both the design vision and the integrity of the building process. Ultimately, my goal is to create environments that feel thoughtful, enduring, and deeply connected to everyday life. I approach each project not only as a designer, but as a careful steward of both vision and process.
