About
I am a licensed architect, computational designer, and educator passionate about using design and technology to tackle complex, interdisciplinary challenges. My work integrates a deep understanding of the human condition with cutting-edge technical tools, bridging architecture, software development, and systems thinking.
In addition to my architectural practice, I develop computational tools and frameworks that enhance design processes and drive innovation. Through teaching, writing, and creating, I inspire others to see design as a way to solve broader systemic problems, from urban planning to technological development.
