I’ve been making things my whole life—starting with crayons and LEGOs, moving on to Prismacolor pencils and xylene markers in architectural school, and now with custom-built computers and high-end cameras. The medium has changed, but the impulse is the same: create something that didn’t exist yesterday.

I’m a 3D Visualization Artist, Architectural Designer, and Photographer with over a decade of professional experience crafting vivid renderings, compelling designs, and visual stories that stick. My career has taken me from building models in the studio to helping global luxury brands visualize their flagship spaces—working with clients like Louis Vuitton, Tiffany & Co., Blackstone, and SOM. If you’ve ever walked into a beautifully lit, perfectly detailed retail environment, there's a chance I had a hand in how it came to life.

I studied Interior Architecture and Product Design at Kansas State University and have spent the past 17 years in New York City honing my craft at firms like Peter Marino Architect, AJSNY, and Neoscape. I work fluently in 3ds Max with V-Ray, Photoshop, Illustrator, and all the digital tools that help translate design intent into immersive visuals. That said, I still believe a well-placed sticky note has its place in the creative process.

Outside the studio, I’m an Eagle Scout with a soft spot for the Appalachian Trail and big plans for a future thru-hike—once I’ve negotiated terms with my 6-year-old son, who’s currently bridging from Lion to Tiger in Cub Scouts. My wife Meghan and I are raising a curious, spirited little explorer, and I’m proud to say he’s already mastered the art of "campfire storytelling" (whether or not it's true is beside the point).

Whether I’m building out a photoreal render, capturing the right light through a lens, or finding just the right piece of LEGO with my son, I bring the same energy: thoughtful, precise, and a little bit obsessive—in the best way.
