I am currently a practicing Urban Designer at Design, Community & Environment.

I hold a Masters of Landscape Architecture and Environmental Planning from U.C. Berkeley. My studies and thesis focused on land use planning and design issues associated with rural gentrification. As an undergraduate, I studied the intersection of Linguistics and Computer Science under the guise of Cognitive Science. This led to a career in software engineer, which I practiced for 5 years before entering graduate school.

I have a life beyond my work.

I live in San Francisco in Bernal Heights south of the Mission. I'm married, windsurf, cycle, body board, garden, and cook and eat great food. My family lives in Hawaii. My inlaws live in Montreal.
