Academic Medical Centers

Integrated platforms for healing & discovery

Academic Medical Centers drive positive change in medicine, research, and education. Campus and facility planning and design must support the brand promise and identity of the enterprise, promote leading translational research, provide safer, healthier, and more efficient clinical care, promote wellness, and engage the patient with the clinician and investigator on a shared path to better health.

Driven to become a top design consultant, I have helped deliver cutting edge technologies for healthcare and education across the country.
