Short Bio

I founded J2H Designs, LLC, a residential / commercial design firm in 2003. Located in Paoli, I have designed projects in the 5 county Philadelphia area along with projects in the Poconos, New Jersey, Delaware, Massachusetts, and Colorado.

I started the company after graduating from Drexel University in 2002 with my Bachelor of Architecture Degree. While attending Drexel, I worked for various architectural firms in Chester County. Prior to attending Drexel University, I was self-employed building custom homes in Chester and Delaware counties as Westview Builders. Before opening Westview Builders in 1986, I received my Associates Degree in Architectural Engineering from Penn State University.

After graduating from West Chester East High School in 1975, I worked as a carpenter and progressed to the position of Construction Superintendent and eventually Project Manager for some of the largest builders in the area.

My wife and I purchased our property in West Brandywine Township in 1985. We built our current home in 1986 where we raised our 3 sons.
