Acknowledgments

Thank You Friends and Associates!
To all that I have designed buildings for, collaborated with, and been inspired by their work - a sincere thanks.

No project is EVER completed by one person; in fact, most of them are created and designed in a collaborative TEAM environment with each individual person and firm bringing their unique talent, interest, goals and personality to the project.

Below is a growing list of those talented professionals and team members in the design and building world that have inspired me to, and helped me create, much of the great design and planning work that I have been a part of for the last 45 years, either working for others or on my own.

I would also like to acknowledge those special clients and quality builders that trusted in my talent and expertise and supported me throughout the life of the project and beyond. I am happy to say that many of them remain close friends today.
