As an architect working within the City of Bozeman, I understand well the goals and requirements of the UDC and how architects and developers can fulfill those goals. I received my M. Arch from UC Berkeley in 2015 and have 6 years of prior construction and contracting experience, thus am equally comfortable discussing the practical constraints of building and the conceptual underpinnings of design. I am excited for the opportunity to serve the community I grew up in and ensure the incredible character of this place we all love.
