His experience spans scales from planning to detail design, which informs his approach to creating coherent and meaningful public spaces on complicated sites. His background in both architecture and landscape architecture allows him to view projects through multiple lenses that bring a design rigor to his projects. He regularly lectures at conferences, both locally and nationally, and was a recipient of the SWA\u2019s Patrick T. Curran research fellowship for his proposal &#8220;Extramedium: Methods of Infrastructure as Public Space,&#8221; in which he studied opportunities for retrofitting infrastructural corridors as public space in cities defined by sprawl. Michael also collaborated in a Performance Series Case Study on Buffalo Bayou Park (post-Hurricane Harvey) with the Landscape Architecture Foundation. Prior to joining SWA, Michael taught urban research and design as a faculty member in the Rice School of Architecture.<\/p>\n<\/div>[vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1549973613519{margin-bottom: 15px !important;}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h1 style=\"font-size: 20px;
