A fresh, strategic approach
for a new launch or a relaunch. Brownfield, grayfield or greenfield.

My 30-year career comes from a master developer perspective. I’ve been everything from a financial analyst for the Irvine Company to serving in senior leadership positions with organizations like Forest City. From concept to completion, I have deep experience collaborating with and leading multi-disciplinary teams.

As a placemaker, I have an integrated approach that focuses not only on the built environment but on the soft infrastructure necessary to curate a dynamic place. Success depends on creating compelling, cohesive vision that orchestrates a broad spectrum of uses, stakeholders, and disciplines. A comprehensive roadmap is essential to provide guidance and to set both objectives and measures of success.

My roles

Strategic Advisor   /   Senior Executive  /   Team Leader
