I am personally offering creative and intellectual development courses outside of the college campus setting for students and the general public who have a desire to develop skills for the purpose of personal enrichment, gaining an academic edge, or developing professional competencies.
Courses consist of 3 or 5 week workshops where we meet as a group to hone in on very specific aspects of creative and intellectual development.
I will bring my degrees in architecture and psychology, my 12 years of college teaching, my over 35 years of design practice, along with my passion to teach others, into the learning environment. In addition to my, I will invite field-related experts to the classes (where applicable) to broaden the scope of learning
workshops + lectures
A professor teaching various courses, such as in architecture design, urban design, architectural illustration, architectural history, specifications, and blueprint reading for commercial construction, I am committed to helping students unlock their potential through innovative course work that integrates both theory and practice. Aside from being actively involved with students in the classroom, I am passionately building a mentoring program for students who desire to enter into the design profession, building and construction industry, or construction management. I am currently working with local municipalities and private companies to create unique opportunities for the students by allowing then to be involved in designing developing real properties.
