hello

My relationship with architecture began at a very early age; unlike many others, I’ve always have had an idea of what I’ve wanted to do since elementary school. In the time since then have, I have dedicated my time to learning about architecture; learning its history, understanding aesthetics, and its ideas. Part of this interest stems from the fact that I’ve always loved to draw, and have spent countless hours filling sketchbooks with drawings. In spring 2020 I received my Bachelor of Science in Architecture from Kent State University, in addition to hand drawings + modeling, I also specialize in Rhino3D, Vray, the Adobe suite, some experience with grasshopper, Revit, AutoCAD, and more.

My interests and aesthetic tendencies stem from a particular interest in the architecture, art, and graphics of the mid 20th century [the 1920s-1970s]. I have always been attracted to the works of Mies, Richard Neutra, Eero Saarinen, Charles and Ray Eames, Paul Rudolph, Frank Lloyd Wright, and numerous others. But I am not entirely stuck in the past, as I also find inspiration in the works of more contemporary designers such as Jennifer Bonner, Clark Thenhaus, Renzo Piano, Norman Foster, David Chipperfield, Peter Eisenman, Peter Zumthor, Neri & Hu, and many others.

Filmmaker Orson Welles once said, “I passionately hate the idea of being “with it”, I think an artist has always to be out of step with his time.”, so I have always strived to find new ways to approach and solve problems, exploring and working to apply my skills and knowledge to create a quality product.
