A Canadian architectural designer based in New York.

I have been moving around quite a bit in my life; lived in Canada, China, Germany, UK, and the States. Five years ago, I came to New York via a small town in Ontario, Canada in pursuit of a career in architecture. Now, whenever I'm not engaged in professional related matters, you may find me reading with a cup of tea in hand, or just making stuff for fun.
