About you
Your home does not fit your current needs. You would like to reconfigure the layout, expand the space, or build a new home or ADU, to reflect your lifestyle and priorities today.
About me
I provide residential architectural services for home remodels, additions and ADUs, helping clients create homes that better align with their family’s needs and aesthetic preferences.
I have 15+ years of experience spanning all phases of project design and delivery on high-end single family residential projects for architecture firms in the Bay Area.
My love of architecture began when visiting job sites as a young child with my carpenter dad. My appreciation deepened when later visiting him when he lived in a Frank Lloyd Wright house. I knew something was special about that house - but being only 13 years old - I couldn’t quite pinpoint yet what the things were that made it feel so incredibly special. Since then I’ve learned that it was the knowledge of and attention to the human scale, personal space, detailing, the use of natural materials, scale, proportion and light (among other things) which helped to make that house feel so wonderful when I was in it.
I hold a Bachelor of Architecture degree (2002) from the California College of the Arts in San Francisco. Since graduating, I’ve worked at a number of architecture firms in the Bay Area, and am a California Licensed Architect (C-41192).
My experience ranges from working on the design of offices, restaurants and bars in the earlier years to focusing on high-end single family residential projects over the past 15+ years.
