While at Virginia Tech, he had the opportunity to study and work in Chicago as part of the Virginia Tech Chicago Studio, where he developed a passion for designing within an urban landscape. Additionally, he participated in constructing and maintaining the Virginia Tech FutureHAUS, a modular protype house; explored digitally fabricated 3D printed folding shelter systems as part of an independent research project; and completed an independent study in film photography, exploring spaces through double exposures.
