ABOUT

My path into architecture began on site, not in the studio. As a timber framer, carpenter, and project lead, I spent years raising frames, running job sites, and solving problems in real time, learning the logic of joinery, the behavior of materials, and how decisions on paper become reality.

At the San Francisco Institute of Architecture, I earned a Bachelor of Architecture and a Master of Ecological Design, shaping how I think about energy, materiality, and what it means to design responsibly in a specific climate and context. That education unfolded across diverse soils, from the shores of Lake Superior to the San Francisco Bay Area, each sharpening my understanding of place.

My work centers on restrained homes, contemporary in form, yet quietly rooted in the vernacular of their place, spaces shaped by proportion and light, responsive to the land and the rhythms of daily life.

Based in Madison, Wisconsin, my practice is informed by Passive House principles, natural and high-performance materials, and timber framing, bridging old wisdom and new science.

When you work with me, you work directly with me, from our first walk of the site through the final construction detail. From the intimate ritual of a sauna to the expansive vision of a multigenerational home, what remains constant in my practice is care, clarity, and collaboration.
