About

Working between cities, buildings, real estate and objects.

Portrait placeholder

I am a college student studying the built environment through engineering, architecture, urban research and real estate.

My work asks how cities support everyday life and how architecture can hold both memory and change. I am especially interested in mixed-use neighbourhoods, hospitality, housing, future urban development and the relationship between spaces and objects.

This website brings together research, design projects, field notes and two growing visual databases: one focused on real estate and architectural styles, and another on furniture makers and products.
