Relationships are the foundation of our work. Experience is what gets you in the door, but trust is what builds relationships that will last decades. For me, it’s the people and personalities behind the project that make the difference. It’s important to make connections between the client and the project team to build that trust from day one.

Architects create relationships between users and the built environment; I create relationships between the client and the designers. I work on a human scale, asking myself how the client will connect to the space. The future of design is rooted in our ability to collaborate. Everything happens faster today, but at the end of the day, it comes back to the same driver: the people.
