I am an artist, urban planner, and social entrepreneur rooted in Denver. My creative practice and my professional life run on the same current: both are about seeing a place clearly and imagining what it could become.
I have spent more than a decade in equitable community development, focused on building community-guided neighborhood assets through placemaking and social justice. Today that work takes the form of leading Atlantis Community Housing, a Denver nonprofit developing accessible, affordable homes. Along the way, I have led a regional nonprofit, managed master site development for a community land trust, and founded my own planning consultancy. In 2026, I was appointed to the Denver Planning Board, where I help shape the city's land use and development decisions.
Away from the work, I draw, I design, and I photograph the places I travel, from Tokyo to Bogotá to the Maroon Bells. You will find that work throughout this site. It is not separate from the rest; it is how I stay curious about cities, people, and what makes a place feel like home.
