About
Born & raised in Miami, FL & Nassau, Bahamas. I am a Certified Permaculture Designer & LEED AP, formally trained in Architecture & Environmental Design. I am an alumnus of the Arcosanti project in Arizona, where I helped
develop a small-scale solar & wind energy program for the community
that keeps the all important "beer fridge" in continuous opperation,
and participated in the design & construction of the ongoing
project.
I served as Outreach Coordinator for non-profit Local Energy in Santa Fe, NM, while conducting the feasability study for the Santa Fe Biomass-Fired District Energy Project. The preliminary engineering and design of the main district heating system for downtown Santa Fe, NM utilizes the sustainable harvest of over-populated, small-diameter timber as a local fuel source for community wide heating. I also served as Site & Landscape Coordinator for Mazria, Odems, Dzurec, an Architecture firm specializing in passive-solar design.
I am currently in the proccess of completing my Architect licensure, while serving as Sustainabiltiy Advisor & Program Manager for the Brightworks Sustainable Buildings Group. I have recently relocated to San Francisco from the American Southwest.
My hobbies include live music, architectural metal fabrication, biodiesel advocacy, and cross-country bicycling.
