In my past professional lives, I have been a salesman, an auto mechanic, a draftsman, a security guard, a cartographer of cemeteries, and a Russian, Serbian, and Croatian Linguist whilst in the Army. I spent 3 years working as a CAD Technician, and realized that I had found my calling in life, Architecture. However, I wanted to be on the otherside of the desk, so I sold the house and went back to school. Now, after having spent 6 years of my life earning a Bachelors of Architecture, Although I just received my license, I have over ten years in the industry.I am a LEED-AP with a strong interest in sustainable design, traditional neighborhood development, restoration / renovation of old houses (I live in a 1920's cottage), model trains, and living a Simple Life.
