| Introduction | If I had articulated as a kid what I wanted to do with my life it probably would have come out as a fantasy version of what I'm doing right now. That's a good sign. My design career began formally when I entered the Alberta College of Art and Design in 1993. It became apparent to me that I was more a designer than an artist. I found myself craving parameters and ultimate purpose for the work I was creating. That is what brought my focus to the built environment. The portfolio you see here is a small collection of some of that work - from my most recent projects to my favourites through my earlier work with multi-media and architectural firms, design school projects and a sneak peak at my extracurricular passions. Welcome to my work! |

The squish of mud between your toes; how would you live your life as a frog?
That's a stupid question, psh.
