Founding Principal

"By the age of 10, I had decided to become an 'Architectural Engineer'. The name alone had captured my imagination. Sometime later I learned that Architectural Engineers designed buildings, and not cars. Though I am still enamored with cars, I now find buildings more satisfying. "
