Now
I was most recently Development Project Manager at South Downtown Atlanta, working on the adaptive reuse of the most significant historic district in the heart of the City.
Then
I have spent a decade in affordable housing and historic preservation — at Mercy Housing Southeast, Westside Future Fund, and Cincinnati Center City Dev. Corp. — trying to define neighborhood revitalization.
And sometimes
When I'm not working intensely on projects, I'm serving on the Trees Atlanta Board, building things with my hands, cooking something decent, or chasing my two boys around Oakhurst.
(Like, the literal street.) Collaborative effort between Downtown Atlanta Inc., MARTA, ATLDOT, and GA Power to reinvigorate the Broad Street corridor between Five Points and Garnett Transit Stations for an enhanced pedestrian-first experience. Wider sidewalks, safer lighting, and richer landscaping result in all-around better infrastructure.

Atlanta Tech Village is the engine of South Downtown's success. We built out eleven ATV suites for the Southeast's best tech-enabled businesses. Beyond the heroic core & shell effort, this was a full turn-key fit-out, including full furniture and technology packages.

At the corner of Broad and Mitchell (i.e., "Main and Main"), this is the microcosm of South Downtown's generational ambition. Two residential units, three ground-floor retail spaces (including Glide Pizza!), and one ATV office suite. Live-work-play as it was meant to be.

Founders Green is the gem of South Downtown and the darling of FIFA World Cup 2026. South Downtown converted a 50-stall parking lot into the most family-friendly, yet intimate watch party for the month of matches. Flanked by El Tesoro and Broad St BBQ, you'll have no excuse to leave.

This is the third location for the local sensation. This project started as four hodgepodged walls, a collapsed roof, and a decade-old beehive. Nothing more. And now the margaritas are just as good, the lines are just as long, but the vibe is like no other.
