What part of the design process lights you up the most?
Schematic Design — seeing ideas take shape and form for the first time.
Can you share a favorite project?
Mermaid on the Cupola, which included a custom boardwalk from the house to the beach. It was the first project I ever worked on, and it made a lasting impression.
What design element captures Red Barn’s “Come Home to Happy”?
We recently designed an open first-floor plan with generous connections to the outdoors and ocean views. The result is a space that feels effortless and expansive, inviting both everyday comfort and joyful gathering.
Where do you usually turn for inspiration?
Walking through neighborhoods, noticing small architectural details—it’s become second nature.
Outside of work, what makes you HAPPY?
My dogs, my family and friends, reading, and golfing.
