I am a Chicago native, having called the Lincoln Square neighborhood home for the past 25 years.

TJPA is a consulting firm specializing in architectural visioning, conceptual design, developer liaison services, and fractional leadership.

With 30+ years in the industry, my career has been dedicated to leading multidisciplinary teams in the pursuit of innovative design solutions, with a particular focus on mass timber, adaptive reuse, large-scale multifamily residential development, hospitality, commercial, and student living on a national stage.

My focus lies in high-level project visioning, community outreach, and client engagement, ensuring that each project is carried out with creativity, quality, and a deep understanding of the complexities involved. Outside of architecture, I channel my passion and discipline into various interests, including marathon, triathlon, and Ironman racing, piloting, softball, playing guitar at open mics, and traveling—each of which brings a unique perspective and energy to my professional life.
