ABOUT ME
DESIGN SKILLS
I can remember realizing my love for art and design at a young age. While growing up in a southern suburb of Chicago, I began my design career with lincoln logs. Through my experience in school, I quickly learned how to harness and use my artistic abilities. By the time I reached college I was able to use these skills to communicate my designs and understandings of the architecture profession as I focused on particular interests in architecture school. I grew up playing ice hockey. It has brought me to many different places in North America and has taught me a lot about the importance of being a part of a team. I love sports, traveling, my family, and my dog. Not neccessisarily in that order. I have a large appreciation for all of the arts and hope to become a liscensed architect in the near future.
