Hartford is a city rich with history and opportunity, advantageously positioned geographically, and filled with a diverse population. Additionally, the city is filled with young talent alongside those who can foster and mentor this talent.
Each person in a city with the size and scale of Hartford can make an impact.
I’ve always been passionate about supporting my community. Since moving to Hartford over six years ago, I have served on
My new role as an entrepreneur/developer is a natural extension of my dedication to improving and supporting Hartford.
In this new role, I offer a fresh perspective and bring forward innovative ideas. I’ve had the privilege of living, working, and studying in 13 different cities across the world since graduating high school. During that time and throughout my career, I have worked on a variety of projects on all different scales, giving me a breadth of global knowledge concerning the built environment. Furthermore, my design work today is grounded in a hospitality perspective, giving me strong insight into what encourages people to travel to and remain in a certain destination, and what sorts of environments people want to spend their time in.
I am a firm believer that Hartford has the all the ingredients to be a destination city, back to Mark Twain’s claim that, “Of all the beautiful towns it has been my fortune to see, this is the chief.”
As a licensed architect who has worked on small- to large-scale commercial and mixed-use projects, I have been involved with all stages of the development and construction process:
My experience spans over 17 years, over hundreds of projects all over the world, ranging from a 2,000 sqft office interior fit-out to a new, 1,200-room resort on a man-made island which included the following tasks:
I have learned over my 17 years of experience that the key to success for these tasks is to be very organized and clear with information, communication, and documentation.
One highlight of my career is being responsible for the design and layout of the Colt Gateway’s North Amory in the Coltsville National Historical Park. One of the chief tasks for this project was to meet both the developer’s desired residential unit count, create highly desirable residential rental units that would meet current market demands, and satisfy the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) mandate to preserve the building in the most appropriate, historical manner possible.
