Healthcare Design Work
Over 35 years working in the Healthcare Design arena has taken me through an ever evolving journey that has reflected on the Healthcare markets trends, priorities, technology and care models of the day. With today’s Healthcare reforms, this journey continues to evolve with the development of new approaches, design ideas, and out of the box solutions, to address today’s issues. I look forward to the challenges and being a part of the solutions.

Fun Fact
In 1987, I had the opportunity to design the platform at Miami International Airport where Pope John Paul II and President Ronald Reagan met. Eye opening experience dealing with the Vatican and the White House staff, something I will never forget.
