AT&T Headquarters
Syracuse, NY
AT&T Corporate Office is a 6
story 35,000 sf mixed-use
building that required
luxurious finishes as well as
flexible floor space for the
tenant. As team member
throughout the project I am
proud that this building
helped to revitalize
downtown Syracuse.
City Hall
New Haven, CT
The original historic New
Haven City Hall is an example
of High Victorian Gothic
Architecture which demanded
sensitivity to create an
addition that cohesively
matched old with new. As
one of the team members,
this issue informed all aspects
our design and construction
detailing.

Parsons School
New York, NY
The Parsons School of Design
at the New School Art and
Photography studios were in
need of updating and
renovating. I acted as project
manager travelling on site to
assess the as-builts in
preparation for subsequent
design and detailing work
necessary for this project.
Particular attention was given
to address the needs of the
diverse student body.
Taft School Residence
Watertown, CT
The Taft Prep School
reorganized the existing and
new buildings around a pond
for cohesion and focus to
beautiful effect. I acted as the
drawing production assistant
for this project.

Campbell Addition
Kirkland, WA
The Campbell Residence
Addition is located in the Rose
Hill neighborhood of Kirkland,
WA. I performed all the
functions necessary to the
completion of this building as
head of InSight Design. The
intention was to create a
seamless and affordable
addition for a growing family.
The collaboration between
clients, architect and contractor
was a successful one.
Ho Building
Seattle, WA
The Ho Building is a two-story
office building on a bustling
Seattle neighborhood street. As
project manager, I uncovered a
main staircase code violation
early on that kept the building
compliant and on schedule.

South Point Dormatory
at Kent School
Kent, CT
Southpoint Dormitory is a
four-story residence hall at
Kent School, a
coeducational boarding
school. The architecture of
the Kent campus is largely
Georgian Revival and the
new dormitory uses this
vocabulary. I worked as a
part of the team designing
to a tight budget and met
regularly with the
school’s construction
advisor to ensure value
coincided with form and
function.
Yale Press Box
New Haven, CT
A new Yale Bowl Press Box was
designed after the original
had been destroyed by
fire. I enjoyed preparing
the drawings for this small
project which included
terra cotta “Y”s as well
as the mascot bulldog
face.

Crocker Residence
Gulf Stream, FL
The Crocker Residence is a
more than 10,000sf Gulf
Stream seaside villa which
draws from Roman concepts
of luxury and symmetry in
keeping with the client’s
aesthetic. I was part of the
team that worked with the
head designer to keep the
theme consistent from
conceptual design through
construction documents. I
visited the building years
later to confirm that the
building is holding up
beautifully against the harsh
Florida elements.

Furniture Project
Changing Table
Juried Furniture Show
Portland AIA
After the birth of my first child it
became apparent that a changing
table would be a very useful tool. I
hoped that it would be beautiful
also. The top was meant to cradle
the child. It was built by joining flat
pieces of wood to create a faceted
arc. The facets were then rounded
with custom-made router guides to
smooth the top and bottom
surfaces into a seamless curve. Here
form and function work together
from top to bottom.
Community Center
Mesa Verde, CO
The Community Center site
plan was hand drawn in
colored pencil as a
presentation to the city of
Mesa Verde while I was still a
student at the University of
Colorado.
