"Everything we believe comes
from the stories we've been told.
We can move forward with
a new story, together."
- Heather McGhee, The Sum of Us
The Every Door Project
Every Door began as my graduate thesis at SCAD, where I set out to understand why some places thrive while others are forgotten. What started as research into gentrification became something much larger:
a philosophy about stewardship, belonging, and the stories we inherit from the places we call home.
Today, Every Door is where that philosophy continues to evolve. Through essays, design projects, community partnerships, and everyday observations, I explore what happens when we intentionally invest in people and places, one door at a time.
Not every door leads somewhere.
This is where I think out loud about the moments that don't fit neatly into a portfolio but somehow end up shaping everything I build afterward.

This is where the theories leave my notebook.
An opportunity to test an idea, solve a problem, and learn something new. I share the context, the constraints, the process, and the lessons along the way. The final photos are only part of the story.

Every Door didn't appear out of nowhere.
These are the books, questions, research rabbit holes, and origins that keep changing how I see people, places, and possibility.

Have a story to share? A project to explore? Or maybe something you read here sparked a thought. Whatever brought you here, I'd love to hear about it.
Every good story starts with a conversation. Let's see where it leads us!
