As a child, I explored the trails behind my house in Eastern Kentucky, foraging for blackberries or honeysuckle. As a teenager, I moved with my family to Louisville, Kentucky, only to realize how beautiful a place can be and how quickly it can become developed. As a Registered Architect, I now live in beautiful Oregon, where I continuously explore in solitude or share these experiences with families and friends. At work, I help design and develop sustainably. In my free time, I enjoy being active outdoors, leaving no trace, and teaching others to do the same.
