Journey

My story began in northeast Ohio in a humble suburban home, the youngest of three raised by a single mother. My family and education demanded excellence and self-reliance. I studied Architecture in Washington,DC, a city which offered an abundance of opportunity and a strong foundation for my professional career. The sunshine drew me west to Los Angeles in 2005 and allowed me to appreciate the importance of living a balanced life. I met my life partner in 2010 and we share joy and inspiration from traveling and exploring new destinations together. We moved to New York City for just over two years prior to the pandemic, and then returned back to Los Angeles.
