DESIGNER AT HEART
I don't ever remember a time when I wasn't drawing. Before I was old enough to know what the word architecture meant, I was creating space. There is nothing I am more passionate about than great design.
For the past twenty three years, I have had the privilege of working in three Berkshire County architectural firms, as well as providing services for my own clients. I am currently licensed in Massachusetts, New York & Florida.
After college, I interned for Christine Toupin AIA Architects in all aspects of project support and development. This was a comprehensive experience encompassing all phases of architecture that helped solidify my design capabilities and nurtured my love of design.
In the fall of 2006, I came to Harrison Design Associates eager to learn the structural side of design. Thus began a lasting relationship with Robert Harrison. After the birth of my son, I worked part time for Pamela Sandler AIA Architect for almost two years before returning to Harrison Design in the fall of 2013.
I am proud to have taken on the role of principal in 2018 at Berkshire Design, Inc., a dynamic team and group of motivated individuals that bring character, life and personality to each of our projects.
