Michael’s career began with a passion for art, photography, and furniture craftsmanship, laying the foundation for his enduring fascination with design. Viewing architecture as an intricate tapestry of individual elements woven into a broader canvas of societal impact and responsibility, he has continuously embraced this dual perspective.

His aim is to conceive projects that echo the values of those he serves, while fostering creativity through exploration—a sentiment echoed by O’Shaughnessy and immortalized by the words of Willy Wonka:
“We are the music makers,
And we are the dreamers of dreams.”

With over 21 years of expertise in architecture and construction, Michael possesses practical insights into project design, management, and hands-on construction. His diverse background has empowered him to make meaningful contributions across a spectrum of residential and commercial endeavors.

Michael’s professional journey includes roles at esteemed firms like Max Levy Architect in Dallas and Richard Meier & Partners in Los Angeles.
