Hello.
I am an architectural designer living in the US heartland and working on the material implications of design: Expanding material palettes to include contextual environmental elements and strategies of creative reuse and alternative use. Acknowledging the interconnectedness of built, social, and natural ecologies. Using digital design technology to produce and manipulate forms and aggregations according to material, environmental, and social parameters. Developing fabrication workflows and feedback-loop design processes that allow for smart translation from the virtual to the tactile.
I am currently working on speculative design-research of urban spaces and communities, freelance work, and other fun stuff.
