...from economical to
elaborate, professionally designed homes, with your satisfaction being our
ultimate goal!
Residential construction is my passion! Every home I design is an expression
of my creativity, and great pride is achieved from all of my works. Ultimately
the customer has the final say in all design aspects; as long as their desires
meet all building codes, and are structurally sound, we can make it happen! I
would be honored to be considered your designer on your next building project.
Home design and planning seminar
Please check back often for the next "home design and planning seminar," coming

encounter when planning to build a new home, from staking a building site to
walking into your completed home. I will have guest speakers who specialize in
various aspects of your planning phases, e.g. building contactors, construction
loan agents, interior designers, etc...

the "tools" link above, you will find useful links and information that will

Imagination
has brought mankind through the dark ages to its present state of civilization.
Imagination led Columbus to discover America. Imagination led Franklin to
discover electricity. Imagination has given us the steam engine, the telephone,
the talking-machine, and the automobile, for these things had to be dreamed of
before they became realities. So I believe that dreams--daydreams, you know,
with your eyes wide open and your brain machinery whizzing--are likely to lead
to the betterment of the world. The imaginative child will become the
imaginative man or woman most apt to invent, and therefore to foster,
civilization.

Value Engineering
A primary responsibility of an Architectural Designer is to identify
opportunities to remove unnecessary construction costs while assuring that
quality, reliability, and performance will meet or exceed the customer's
expectations. "Value Engineering" is a systematic approach to obtaining optimum
value for every dollar spent. Using creative techniques, I provide value
engineering as part of my basic service. With years of value engineering
experience, and construction knowledge, I incorporate cost-saving and
time-saving construction methods in every design. Let me help you make your
project feasible and within budget.
Experience
I am an experienced professional, and I have held positions as an Estimating
Manager for one of the largest building material suppliers / component
manufactures in the United States, and as a Senior Estimator of a Fortune 200
national homebuilder. In addition, I am a graduate of Dunwoody College of
Technology with a degree in Architectural Drafting & Estimating Technology. See "resume" tab above for complete resume and credentials.
