What excites you about your career here at CLR?

I’m excited about the opportunity to work on these large public projects with conservation minded clients and some extremely talented people here at CLR.  Sustainable architecture is one of my primary interests and having clients who prioritize that make it possible to deliver on a successful project incorporating those concepts.

What do you like about exhibit design?

Exhibit design creates unique architectural challenges compared to other project types I’ve worked on.  Guest experience, animal well-being, and employee operations need to be approached thoughtfully, and I enjoy the way that the team at CLR works with clients to find design solutions.

What do you enjoy doing on the weekend?

I spend a lot of time outdoors; snowboarding, hiking, swimming, wakeboarding, mountain biking, camping… the list seems to keep growing.

Tell us something fun or funny about yourself that most people don’t know.

I don’t talk a lot about how much I enjoy art, sculpture especially but I try to see a lot of live music and stand-up comedy.  Luckily there’s a lot of it available in Philadelphia.
