Me

I am a twentysomething year old resident of Rhode Island who is a relatively recent graduate of an architecture school in Boston (no, not that one, and not that other one either). I work in architecture and have a passion for architectural history, and want to share what I know. I have been contributing to Wikipedia since 2012.

I am most interested in the architecture of the United States, mostly of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. I welcome any questions, and will answer to the best of my knowledge.

For NCARB: The "This user is an architect" userbox is not strictly true, no fine please.

My edits

The majority of my edits have to to with architects, architecture and the history of both. I have created a number of new articles on historic architects, and expanded others. I also create articles about buildings or historic sites, including NRHP properties. A lot of what I do simply involves linking articles to others. Currently working on what I call the Simply, Rotten & Foolish project, a deep dive into the work, partners and associates of Shepley, Rutan & Coolidge and its successors. Amongst many, many, many other distractions of course.

My most recent new article is Hutchins & French, Boston bank architects.
