Rooted deeply in his past as a stone mason, his approach to designing buildings is crafted and tailored for each client.  "Architecture is more about relationships and understanding the client's vision and needs than just producing buildings."  John was awarded his Masters Degree in Architecture from UNC Charlotte.  John has also managed the development of over $150mm in multifamily communities in the Carolinas while working for a national REIT firm.  When John is not working on projects he is spending time with his wife and three energetic kids.  John enjoys playing blues guitar, basketball, fishing and running.
