About David

David’s love of being creative and solving problems started early with building models and grew as he did, leading to life-size projects and eventually a career in architecture. Early on, he learned if you debate something long enough, flip this and move that, and look at all angles and ideas, you can find a solution to anything. That attitude enables him to give clients better options even on what they knew they wanted. He feels the walk-throughs he does with them in their current space are key to exposing pain points, understanding their work processes and what should carry over to the new project. He wants the clients to know he’ll do his best to give them a quality project that meets all their needs, so he does everything he can from the very beginning to earn their trust.

On his favorite project

“Everyone deserves access to good healthcare, so helping hospitals and clinics improve their facilities to impact patient care and treatment is very important to me. Sixteenth Street’s Parkway Clinic, which serves a large, low-income population, was especially meaningful as I helped increase the throughput of patients so more could be seen by a physician.”

On relational architecture

“Whether it’s making way finding easy where everything makes sense or creating a building with beautiful spaces and materials, it’s all about designing buildings people want to use and experience.”
