I am a principal at Sherwood Design Engineers, where I co-manage a team of engineers, designers and planners in NY, Atlanta and Houston, providing full service civil engineering for University, corporate campus, park, open space, street, plaza and district scale projects. I design sustainable communities through adaptive infrastructure strategies that solve for climate change, carbon dependence and natural resource scarcity. I have led multiple nationally and internationally recognized projects, including the world famous High Line in New York City; the conversion of Fresh Kills, the world’s largest landfill, into a 2600 acre park; and the reconstruction of the St. George Staten Island Ferry Terminal which carries 60,000 riders a day through New York harbor and past the Statue of Liberty. After Superstrom Sandy, I worked with the City and State of New York on the Special Initiative for Rebuilding and Resiliency (SIRR) to integrate coastal protection typologies with community-based urban design strategies in New York City and NY Rising, creating ten New York City community resilience plans. I developed the winning National Disaster Resilience (HUD-CDBG-NDR) Resilient Bridgeport application, one of only thirteen selected nationally, garnering $54 million for the State of Connecticut.
