About

My career is grounded in the understanding that the design of our built environment is integral to our quality of life. A passion for the past, combined with a commitment to a sustainable future, has guided a practice focused on working with existing buildings, including all forms of rehabilitation and additions, spanning the 18th to the 21st centuries. With degrees in architecture, historic preservation and civil engineering, I have an integrated and holistic approach to design, and, although my experience crosses a variety of building and client types, I have concentrated on work for organizations that share my belief in the value of our built heritage, particularly governmental, educational and other non-profit institutions. Following advanced training and experience in Italy, Russia and France, I have developed a keen interest in the global practice of heritage conservation. I speak and write frequently on architecture, preservation and sustainable design, and I have lectured at numerous professional conferences and symposia throughout the United States, Europe and Asia.
