High end architect specializing in making a house feel like home! I make people’s dream homes a reality. There is nothing more satisfying to me then improving the quality of life for my clients and giving them a house that they are able to make into their homes. I have been a licensed architect since 2015 and am currently registered in Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, Maine and Massachusetts. With my NCARB certificate I am able, if necessary, to obtain reciprocal licensure throughout the country in a short time period. I am inspired by our local built environment, humble materials, classical building forms and traditional building details. I have a strong interest in the reinterpretation of classical building forms, blended with contemporary open floor plans. I have a stronger interest in helping to guide my clients to ways of improving the quality of their lives through adapting the built environment to meet their needs.

"BEWARE!!! Bill was VERY unprofessional on our project. I hired him to build a garage and a breezeway attached to my house. He couldn't get the permit, he said something was messed up on the workers comp insurance and he was having his lawyer take care of it. Most likely he doesn't have any because he could never produce any certificates for me. He hand dug the foundation where my garage was going because he didn't want to rent an excavator. When he poured the concrete he said his mason didn't show up and he's not a mason but went ahead and poured it anyway. It was so bad that he had to pour another layer on top of it to make it even look a little bit better, which he hand mixed. He didn't even put the anchor bolt into the concrete. Everything he did he cut corners to try to save a couple dollars. My husband and I rented a concrete grinder and at least leveled out the surface a little. He wouldn't show up to my house until 10-11am then only work til 3-4pm. He never once cleaned up anything. There was a big chunk of asphalt in my yard that he left from when he cut part of the driveway out, which i had to pay someone to dispose of. There is now concrete footprint and concrete dust embedded into my driveway, which i now have to pay to get re-sealed. I found drug bags in my yard and that was the end of it. He couldn't even get to the building part of my project and I way overpaid him for the shabby job he did. I will be spending more money to fix it. His work is barley passable, and VERY sloppy. Buyer beware."

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

A custom home is one that you design from the ground up, allowing you to customize everything from the square footage to the interior layout to all of the materials used. A spec home is one that a builder has designed and gotten approvals for. Spec homes may give you some limited options for the layout and materials, but most of the build is pre-set. Custom homes cost more and take longer to build.

Yes, you can finance cottage construction through several options. Construction loans provide funds in stages as work progresses, while home equity loans or lines of credit are available if you have existing property. Some lenders offer a combined construction and permanent mortgage. Always review loan terms and payment milestones before committing.

Construction typically takes 3-6 months, including site preparation and assembly.

While it’s never too early to start planning for a major home improvement project like a home addition, give yourself at least a month or two to plan and design your addition, find a contractor, and get the permits in order. For larger projects like a second-story addition that require designing with an architect, plan on three to four months of preparation.

Historically, Tudor homes originally stemmed from the 15th and 16th centuries, while Victorians appeared during Queen Victoria's reign in the 19th century. The design and structural differences are significant as well. The many types of Victorian architecture—such as Italianate architecture—typically feature ornate trim, wood siding, wraparound porches, and tall towers on top, such as belvederes. On the other hand, Tudor-style homes feature white stucco exteriors with exposed wooden rafters marking the house frame both inside and out.
