Designing houses is really the only thing I can ever remember wanting to do (other than playing center field for the Yankees - spoiler alert, I didn't get much further than little league).  As a kid, lego was my gateway to residential design.  Lego eventually turned into cardboard models of houses.  Cardboard models turned into drafting classes in high school.  And drafting classes turned into two degrees in Architecture from The Catholic University of America.  

I've been working in the industry since 2001, and have had the chance to work at a handful of great companies and with a lot of great clients.  Now, I'm thrilled to have the opportunity to take all of that experience, and use it to make Designed Happy the absolute best place to work at for our employees, and best place to work with for our clients.
