I am a second-generation architect and lifelong San Diegan, deeply passionate about the power of architecture to shape cities and connect communities. My love for design isn’t just a profession—it’s a lifelong pursuit. I have spent years developing projects, many self-initiated, driven not by financial gain but by a belief that thoughtful architecture can make San Diego a better, more sustainable, and more connected place.
My work spans a variety of scales and uses, including housing, hospitality, schools, and infrastructure such as bridges and piers. I draw inspiration from simple, functional, and environmentally sensitive design, with a foundation in classic modernism and influences from Southern California, Europe, Latin America, and Asia. Sustainability is at the core of my practice, guiding how I approach architecture’s relationship with both the environment and the people who inhabit it.
I am also a member of The Red Office, a fully integrated real estate investment, development, and design company focused on creating value through innovative and thoughtful design. The firm brings together experts in development, construction, and asset management to execute ambitious projects that enhance neighborhoods while remaining financially and environmentally responsible.
For me, architecture is more than buildings—it is about the future of San Diego. I am committed to designing spaces that inspire, endure, and strengthen communities while pushing the boundaries of what our built environment can be.
