About the Architect

With a lifelong passion for design and building, I have dedicated my career to shaping spaces that balance creativity, functionality, and client vision. From early explorations with Lincoln Logs and Legos to formal training at Wentworth Institute of Technology, where I earned degrees in Architectural Engineering Technology and Architecture, my journey has been defined by curiosity, discipline, and a love of translating ideas into built reality.

My professional foundation began with internships in food service design and project management roles at architectural firms, where I collaborated with diverse teams on residential and commercial projects. In 2001, I co-founded a.point.design, inc., which has since grown into a respected Architecture & Planning firm. Over the past 25 years, I have led projects ranging from site development to home renovations, always prioritizing client goals and fostering strong consultant partnerships.

As Principal Architect, I thrive on guiding projects from concept through completion—whether walking a wooded site with a client envisioning possibilities or managing complex processes to deliver effective, well-crafted solutions. My approach is rooted in collaboration, precision, and a deep respect for the uniqueness of each project.

Looking ahead, I remain as passionate about architecture and planning as I was when I first stepped onto Wentworth’s campus in 1990. With a.point.design, inc. celebrating its 25th anniversary in 2026, I am excited to continue shaping spaces that inspire and endure for decades to come.
