I studied Architecture in San Francisco and spent one year in an honors internship program at a prestigious Architecture firm in The Netherlands. In 2002 I began my professional career at a multi-disciplinary design build firm in San Francisco. Working in collaboration with our fabricators I applied classical methods of mathematical proportioning and the use of different materials to create interior installations and custom lighting for residential and commercial projects. In the following years I focused my interests on multi-disciplinary design, working for notable architecture and design firms. In 2007 I took a Designer position in SF to assist in the design of the new Ferrari SF retail store along with other retail stores and a fitness club. In 2008, I was appointed Director of the Privé Boutique for Privé Intl Corp which later lead to, Privé Electronic Cigarettes. By 2012 VaporBrands Intl was formed and I was appointed as President of the newly formed public company.
