Architecture has the power to bring people together. I pursue designs that establish a relationship with the natural environment and balance respect for tradition with a thoughtful response to the drivers of contemporary culture. Partnering with my clients and leading design teams at Gensler, I capitalize on every opportunity to improve our cities and elevate the lives of the people who inhabit the spaces, buildings, and urban environments I design.
