In 2000, I had the distinct honor of creating the winning design for the Long Beach Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Houghton Park, Long Beach, CA. To all the courageous men and women of our armed forces whom we have lost since our nation's inception, this memorial is my endless thank you. Blessings to your families as well.

I look forward to once again utilizing my skills to create something like this that can be appreciated by many people for years to come.
