My passion for residential architecture began early. As a kid I loved to design and draw houses, and eventually I studied architecture at the University of Minnesota. I discovered my passion was not just architecture, but residential architecture and construction.  After graduating from the University of Minnesota I received my real estate license and worked as a framing carpenter for a local custom home builder.

As a custom home builder, I worked on a range of residential projects including a development of detached townhomes, 10-unit townhomes, 7-figure spec homes, and many custom single-family homes. I’ve built decks, done siding work, and demolished homes.

In my free time I like to design houses (AutoCAD is my favorite video game) and work on projects on my own house.
