The Ground
Land is the slowest medium I work in, and the most honest. Every other territory on this map is metaphor; this one has soil. Walk it with me.
Designing where lives will happen.
I research, model, and develop small acreage: market analysis across whole regions, parcel scouting, and 3D terrain studies of how a piece of ground wants to be lived on — where the light falls, where the water goes, where the gathering circle belongs before a single stake is driven. It’s experience design at geological tempo.
Sonder Hollow.
A land venture in progress: multi-state market analysis narrowed to ground worth walking, and terrain modeling that lets you stand on a property before it exists. The long game: land that hosts the other three territories — a place where the Table, the Fire, and the School share an address.
Terrain is the through-line.
The same instruments that read a stuck team read a stubborn hillside: find the existing flows, name the constraints honestly, design with them instead of against them. If you hold land — or want to — and need eyes that see both the parcel and the people it’s for, this is the territory to write to.

Scouting, analysis, terrain study, or the whole slow arc from map to ground-breaking. Tell me about the land — real or still imagined.
