In My Own Words...
My grandfather, father and uncle were all master carpenters. From them I inherited my love of buildings, but none of their skill with tools. My construction career was punctuated with numerous splinters, contusions, bloodlettings and even a broken neck. Architectural office work has proven to be somewhat safer and much more satisfying.

I came to architecture via a back road that included numerous construction and contracting jobs, a Liberal Arts degree from the University of Montana and six years in Central and West Africa with the Peace Corps and the American Friends Service Committee.

After 8 years of on-again off-again architectural school at Montana State University, and several interesting jobs with regional firms, Dyron Murphy, Jim Houser and I teamed to form Dyron Murphy Architects. It has been a busy and exciting 7 years since we prepared our first proposals on folding chairs and tables in an otherwise empty office. Our entire firm shares a vision of providing top-quality services to Native people. I cannot imagine wanting to do anything else.
