About
What I'm after when I design.
My priorities, in order.
BEAUTYSymmetry, contrast, proportion, and geometry.
INTENTIONALITYRooms and spaces placed with purpose, around how they will actually be used.
EfficiencyNo awkward corners, wasted space, or unnecessary complexity.
Your program and lifestyle drive the design. I do not impose a signature on every project. Instead, the design flows out of our conversations and your specific requirements. That is why no two of my projects look alike.
Who I work with.
I am a fit for any client looking to build or remodel a home, whether you are a private client or a developer. What I look for is open, honest, transparent communication, and a willingness to engage in the design conversation with me.

A little about me.
I am a licensed architect in Washington and Oregon, designing custom homes for private clients and developers in the Pacific Northwest. I work solo so I can give every project, and every client, the attention it deserves.
I studied architecture at the University of Oregon, where the program emphasizes intentional and practical design. After graduating I spent two years at a multifamily architecture firm in Seattle before moving in-house with development companies, designing single family homes and middle housing.
Most recently, I have been designing custom homes on subdivision lots, including this year's premier Street of Dreams home.
I started my own practice because the single family residential sphere lacks licensed architects. Most homes are designed by drafters or designers, but the depth of training, accountability, and design judgment an architect brings makes a real difference. Going solo lets me do what I love most: getting to know each client, designing a space that fits them exactly, and making every project unique.
Beyond the studio.
I am Ukrainian-American, born in the U.S. to parents who immigrated in the 1990s. I am an active part of my local Ukrainian community, and I serve as youth leader at my church. My faith shapes how I run my business. I value transparency, honesty, and respect, and I expect the same from the people I work with.
