Executive Summary

I specialize in climate-responsive architecture for hot, dry cities. My work combines passive design principles, low-carbon materials and research into how people actually use shared spaces.

I’ve led projects from small community courtyards to mixed-use districts. Every recommendation comes with the evidence behind it, so clients and communities can understand the tradeoffs and make confident decisions.
