I was born in Richland Center, WI and lived in Dallas, TX for a year before moving to Buffalo, NY, where I grew up. After attending school at University at Buffalo, I’ve since lived in Brussels, New York, and current living in Cambridge, MA where I’m completing my Masters of Architecture at MIT. I’m passionate about architectural design, the built environment, and their impact on society.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One time, when I was 6, I was playing with a cayenne pepper from my mom’s garden, cutting it up and having a blast. During the play, my sister and brother asked if I wanted to get ice cream. Obviously, I did. Along the way, my nose began to itch and so naturally, I scratched it with my cayenne stained finger. Minutes later, I was weeping from the pain. I found no solace from my siblings who died laughing but eventually got some ice to aid in relief. I’ve only done this once so far, but history does often repeat itself...
