About
I’m a multidisciplinary designer and architect based in Chicago, specializing in product, interiors, spaces, and buildings. I lead design teams with a collaborative, client-focused approach, guiding projects from concept through construction while pushing innovative ideas across scales.
My practice transcends disciplinary boundaries, blending storytelling, sustainable design, and hands-on making. I’m passionate about life-centered design, urban context, and transforming complex briefs into thoughtful, tangible environments that people love to inhabit.
