Building the world — one project at a time. Passionate about infrastructure, people, and the stories that shape both.

About Me

A Guy Who Wants to Build the World

I build things — infrastructure, systems, and ideas. A fresh graduate from Arizona State University with a Master's in Construction Management and Technology, I've spent years learning how the world comes together, brick by brick and decision by decision.

Outside of work, I'm chasing trails, soaking in simple adventures, and having conversations that actually matter. People and their stories are what drive me — which is probably why I ended up in a field where every project leaves something behind for the world.
