I’m an architect practicing in the Pacific Northwest where I bring together diverse expertise across different industries with over a decade of design experience to help build a more livable future. In 2025 I founded The Space Age, an architecture and design practice based in Seattle.

I have contributed to award-winning architectural projects around the world, including sustainable lab buildings, healthcare campuses, university buildings, museum galleries, and landmark high-rises. I also helped develop the architecture of the Orbital Reef space station, and served as a systems engineer on the Blue Moon Crew Lander supporting NASA’s Artemis program.

I’ve presented my work at the AIA National Conference, AIAA ASCEND, and USGBC Greenbuild. I am co-chair of the International Conference on Environmental Systems (ICES) session on space architecture and vice chair of the AIAA Space Architecture Technical Committee. I’m a licensed architect in the State of Washington.

My design approach blends creative idealism with pragmatic, technical rigor — I believe that responsibly designing for the future depends on both. I thrive when I’m solving unusual problems, exploring edge cases, and inventing prototypes, apparent from the breadth of my project work. I prefer to work with mission-driven clients who are trying to accomplish something that goes beyond the ordinary.

I'm a graduate of the CU Boulder aerospace engineering program in bioastronautics, the University of Oregon College of Design’s architecture program, and the University of Minnesota’s Humphrey School of Public Affairs.
