Some recent events in Phoenix have led me to delve a bit deeper into the theories behind my interests in urbanism and place-making. In the coming weeks, I will be interspersing some posts based on what I have discovered during this digging with other posts connecting them to what is occurring around me in the city.

Through this personal discourse, I hope to give readers a better idea of where I am coming from and ultimately create a shared understanding with my readers to enable more meaningful discussion.

Please bear with me during my exploration and feel free to add your own observations and or questions in the comment section of each post.
