I’m driven to create learning environments that transform health sciences education. By designing spaces that are welcoming, adaptable, and rich in technology, I aim to advance the unique mission of each allied health program. I believe the right environment can unlock new ways of teaching and learning, empowering both students and instructors to reach beyond what they thought possible. Collaborating with end-users, I seek bold, innovative solutions that result in spaces they are proud to call home, that embody their mission and goals, inspire learners, cultivate community, and elevate their identity and presence.
