Born and raised in Chicago, I always had a thing for tinkering and needing to know how things work. I have many memories of following my father around the house on an otherwise lazy Sunday afternoon as he fixed, installed, rewired, and otherwise tweaked our house, constantly barraging him with questions beginning with a “why” or a “how.” I like fixing things. I like making things. I like solving problems. I like making things better. As a design professional, it rarely feels like the hours required to complete projects are “work”; to me, it’s fun. Ok, sometimes it’s work. But enjoyable work. I feel privileged to exemplify the old adage, “Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life.”
