He holds a graduate certificate in Real Estate Development from the University of Southern California and an M.S. in Architecture from the University of California, Berkeley. His awards include the Zak Asefa Award in Architecture, Marshall School of Business Development Proposal Award and the Arcus Foundation Award.
