Start HereAlthough my graduate thesis focused on how the built environment affects the well-being of patients in hospitals via ‘Evidence-Based Design’ (EBD), I only practiced Healthcare Design for a few years. It is exciting to now be in a role where I am focused on outcome based solutions that go beyond the architecture and design and now take into account the complete building systems that affect not only healthcare but all verticals, and affect not only patients but all occupants of all buildings.

Working for a building material manufacturer for more than 12 years, you would think I might only talk about products, but I don’t. We think from a solutions perspective and help you solve for your spaces. I enjoy pulling materials together to create systems that will impact occupants in a positive way. After creating our Malvern HQ and then experiencing the spaces designed to work in harmony with my colleagues, I think every occupant of every building deserves that level of thought for their occupant experience and comfort.

My advanced art teacher, Mr. Heston, encouraged me to go into design and architecture after a ‘dream house’ drawing assignment. That moment really opened my eyes and created a passion to learn how buildings are built. To me, architecture is more than making a building look pretty, it’s making spaces better for people. After earning my masters in Architecture and designing buildings it seemed like a natural progression to share with others how the right systems can make what is beautiful also better for the well-being of the people inside.

I’m passionate about the physics of how things work and being in and around construction my whole life has afforded me the opportunity to understand our built environment from that scientific perspective. I have a deep seated reverence for both the contract between us as people and the one we share with nature and this is the lens through which I consider our efforts to build a healthier, more productive, and more durable habitat.

I always had an interest in renewable energy and energy efficiency so after achieving my masters in mechanical engineering with a focus on thermal fluid sciences and energy systems it seemed only natural to work in building science. I like to say that I was in building science before building science was even a term. Schedule a Consultation
