Jesse studied Sociology and Theology at Point Loma Nazarene University and holds a Masters Degree in Architecture from the University of Washington. He strives to design spaces that support people as they lead healthy, connected lives in an increasingly urban and technological environment.

Self-identifying as a nerd, Jesse used LEGO as a part of his graduate school application portfolio, including photographing iconic scenes featuring miniature Star Wars characters. Jesse volunteers with the AIA Seattle Committee on Homelessness and the City of Seattle Columbia City Landmarks Review Committee. He also leads JA’s Social Responsibility Committee and serves as the in-office DJ. When not working, Jesse enjoys reading, cooking, biking (both pedal and motor), relaxing with friends, and exploring the great outdoors.
