For the past year, I have worked on single-family residences and small-scale residential developments.
Immediately prior to that, I served for ten years as Design and Planning Principal for the General Assembly and Conference Buildings at the United Nations Headquarters. As an integral part of the Capital Master Plan design team, I worked to adapt the UN Headquarters to Twenty-First Century standards while maintaining the visual appearance of this Twentieth Century icon; respecting its materiality.
I have designed buildings for a variety of project types, including educational facilities, historic structures, corporate offices and office buildings, and residential buildings ranging from low income housing to luxury apartments and houses. I believe in the importance of each and every aspect of the design process, and I work to find an appropriate blend of functional design and aesthetics in every project.
