As the Principal Architect at Longpre Architecture, a Vancouver-based firm specializing in residential, institutional, and commercial projects, I am passionate about creating innovative and sustainable designs that enhance the well-being of occupants and the human experience. I hold a Master of Architecture degree from the University of Calgary, where I developed a global perspective and a deep appreciation for architecture's cultural and environmental context. 

Inspired by the Japanese concept of "kami," I view architecture as "Vessels for the Soul," using authentic materials and advanced techniques to harmonize with the surroundings and the community. I have successfully managed and delivered multiple projects, ranging from character house conversions and laneway homes to educational and cultural facilities, always with the goal of contributing to a vibrant future. I am also currently serving as a member of the Heritage Advisory Commission for the City of North.

Reliable professional with the vision, commitment and leadership skills required to deliver consistent results. Combines excellence at reviewing documents/drawings and clash detection and solid practical judgment with over 10 years of experience within the Architecture and Construction industry.
Experienced in collaborating and interacting with engineers, consultants, municipalities, and owners to adhere to the project schedule and requirements. Completed projects in a wide range of construction areas, from tenant fit-outs to multi-family projects to over 400,000 square feet malls.
