A Little Something...

I'm an artist, interior designer, builder, and creative problem-solver. For more than 30 years, my work has moved between art, architecture, interiors, construction, and the larger question of how the spaces we create shape the way we live.

I studied painting at the Maryland Institute College of Art and the Slade School of Fine Art in London. Born in Texas and having lived globally and traveled extensively, I've developed a perspective informed by different cultures, architectural traditions, materials, and ways of living.

Alongside my interior design practice, I've spent more than two decades working in construction, bringing a practical understanding of how buildings come together to the creative process. My work ranges from individual interiors and complex renovations to new construction, adaptive reuse, and housing development.

I'm also autistic. My neurodivergent mind is central to how I work. I see connections between seemingly unrelated ideas, recognize patterns, question conventional solutions, and find ways to bring complicated concepts into something tangible.

Increasingly, my work is focused on how thoughtful design and creative problem-solving can address larger challenges, particularly affordable and mixed-income housing, accessibility, and the creation of neighborhoods that better serve the people who live in them.

Whether I'm designing a room, coordinating a building project, developing a housing concept, or painting, I'm interested in the same fundamental things: understanding people, connecting ideas, and creating something meaningful from those connections.

I believe good design should be beautiful, functional, accessible, and deeply human.
