Entrepreneurial Spirit 







I launched   Waterworks Games and published Alpenglow, a ski resort board game that raised over $100k in crowdfunding, with 3 new titles coming in 2025.



In 2019, I supported Dr. Sharon Wohl in a research fellowship at the   University of Amsterdam exploring complex adaptive systems theory and its applications to urban design.



In 2014, Wojciech Magda and I founded   Beagle Score, a business site selection data aggregator and winner of Colorado’s GoCode Hackathon.




In 2004, I founded   Zilifone Design and lead design and development launching over 300 websites, apps, brands, and IT projects for clients across the western United States and southern France over 14 years.





Architecture






I’m also a licensed architect in Colorado and Oregon. I specialize in computational design, human centered environments, and high performance buildings.






Waterworks Studio



Waterworks Studio is my freelance firm that where I take on custom homes, remodels, and ADU’s. Recent projects include a custom home outside Aspen and various homes and kitchen remodels in Portland.



New Avenue Homes



I joined New Avenue Homes as an architect helping them scale up their in-house design team. I worked on over a dozen remodels and ADU’s in the San Francisco Bay Area and designed and oversaw budget, permitting and construction.



ZGF Architects




I worked on various projects from concept design through construction administration with ZGF in Portland.  As a member of the Project Performance Team I helped make reusable resources to help teams push the limits for sustainable design. I spent years as a core member and project architect on the YKHC’s Hospital and UC Denver’s Anschutz Health Sciences Building projects.



Design Build




I love getting my hands dirty and believe to be a designer one must also be a builder. I participated and helped lead design build projects with RAW Design Build, the Jersey Devils, and Build Lightly across the world.
