I practice design–build with architectural discipline, remaining engaged from early decisions into construction—when questions of siting, structure, systems, and budget still shape outcomes, and when those decisions are tested by weather and use.

The goal is simple: buildings that last.

  • Background

    I began in industrial design, studying how materials meet, how parts fit, and how people live with the objects around them. A minor in furniture making grounded that education in craft and hands-on execution.

    I moved into high-end residential interiors in Manhattan, designing and building complex spaces where coordination and precision were essential. Over time, the scale expanded—from shaping elements within buildings to helping shape the buildings themselves, working closely with architects, engineers, trades, and clients.

    That progression culminated in the construction of a 15,000-square-foot private residence in Tribeca.

    The scale increased. The craft remained.

    After years of building at the highest budgets, I built my own home—maintaining the same discipline within a builder’s budget. Living inside those decisions clarified what holds up over time—and what doesn’t.

    Later, I built a second small home designed for frequent occupancy, testing durability, clarity for unfamiliar users, and comfort across varying expectations.

    The homes I build today draw from both—lived experience and what time has taught me.

  • How I Think About Sites

    Much of my work begins with existing conditions—sites already altered or left in ambiguous states. I’m drawn to places with history rather than untouched land.

    Working within an already changed footprint allows new buildings to exist with less disruption.

    I’d rather make a place whole again than start from scratch.

    What connects these projects is not style, but accumulated judgment—tested over time and carried from one building into the next.
