Hello
My heart goes out to all of you who have lost your home during the Palisades and Eaton fires. We want to help building back communities, one home at a time.
To this end, I am personally volunteering my time with the AIA Pasadena & Foothill’s Ask an Architect Program.
In addition, we want to offer the following resources and services to all home- and business owners affected by the fires.
