BUILDS & DESIGN
ABOUT ME
As a licensed architect, I’ve always had a deep love for design—but my journey didn’t stop at the drawing board. Through hands-on building and DIY projects, I discovered that the process of bringing my own designs to life gave me a newfound sense of fulfillment. My building experience has sharpened my design expertise, deepening my understanding of how materials come together and enabling me to create more functional yet playful designs.
Whether I'm repurposing old furniture in the shop, getting my hands dirty with a kitchen renovation, or designing a full-scale home, I'm always creating! You can find me working on all sorts of projects on my social media, where I share my passion for design, building, and creative problem-solving. Follow along and be a part of the journey.
