With a lifetime of diverse experiences, I bring a passion for learning, leadership, and creative problem-solving to everything I do. My journey spans early jobs managing recreational facilities, teaching, coaching, and working as a foreman in construction, each role shaping my understanding of teamwork, dedication, and responsibility. 

From drafting home designs during my graduate studies to leading architectural projects and business development efforts at top firms, I’ve built a career driven by curiosity and a commitment to quality.

Rooted in a love for the land and family, my background influences both my professional and creative pursuits. Today, I continue to lead my architecture firm while sharing my experiences through writing. My books reflect years of thoughtful observation on topics ranging from sports to travel, blending lessons learned in design, history, and life into meaningful stories.
