I grew up in a rural part of southern New Hampshire (a town that few know of though all significant cities in the area are within an approximate 45 min. radius). I always craved city life though I ended up in the valleys of the green mountains. In all seriousness, the program was unmatched and the landscape unrivaled. This is where I fell in love with the quirky vernacular architecture of Vermont and the integration of new and existing fabrics which inspires my most current work.

I'm currently employed as a designer for JSA Inc. in Portsmouth NH and my responsibilities include construction administration, programming, SD/DD/CD's, marketing documents, code & product research, detailing of systems and assemblies and client/consultant meetings. Programs used: Revit, 3ds Max, SketchUp, AutoCAD, Adobe Suite.
