I am a licensed architect in the states of California, Nevada and Minnesota with over 26 years of professional experience. I am a Design Principal at JCJ Architecture located in the Las Vegas office. I have played a critical role in many high-profile integrated resort and hospitality projects for some of the most recognized gaming corporations in the United States and abroad.

My role has ranged from Master Planning through Construction Administration leading the design efforts from initial concepts to the technical detailing and documentation of projects. In addition, I have led teams on hospitality, academic, cultural, commercial office building, residential, mixed-use, sports and entertainment projects. I have honed the craft of creating and transforming powerful concepts into designs that elevate guest experiences. My extensive design knowledge began while working with Frank Gehry and transitioned to large-scale casino and hospitality projects. I am passionate about bringing a client’s vision to reality through the pursuit of design excellence.
