“Why is he always smiling?”
I get this a lot.
I’m a happy, creative leader, who has built internal design teams around the world from London to New York to Hong Kong. I love mentoring and empowering designers to produce their best work while building strong remote cultures. I am passionate about the travel/hospitality industry and have worked for world-class organizations such as Starwood Hotels & Resorts, The Langham Hospitality Group and CBRE. I currently am in a design leadership role with Wyndham Hotels & Resorts working across its 23 iconic brands.
After living in major cities, my wife and I relocated to Santa Fe, New Mexico in 2021. We love to travel and build upon our trips abroad, which has included a visit to Bhutan (the happiest place on earth). I also love to cook/eat, collect street art and listen to electronic music — I even dabble in DJ’ing Drum and Bass records.
