About

Licensed Architect in NY, NJ, & WI NCARB Certified As the founder of RHG Architecture + Design I strive to create meaningful buildings, spaces and experiences guided by my philosophy of design. Intentional design has the power to guide us toward wellbeing and wellness through understanding the energy, the collaborators and the goals. Breathing in the past, looking to the future to create in the present. I believe design is a physical representation of how we are interconnected with each other and nature leading me to see Design is Spiritual™️ We can craft structures and spaces for wellness, hospitality, residential, retail and residential which speak to our senses and affect our daily experience bringing us into the present moment where we experience peace beauty, joy and gratitude. This is achieved through shape, flow, integration of the interior and exterior, materiality and designing with intention.
