Most notable professional accomplishments:

• The Centennial Square Fountain in downtown West Palm Beach. It was instrumental in bringing the downtown back from the brink of urban decay. Because of the interactive design of the fountain, it is used by all. Rich or poor, old or young. Handicapped and challenged children are also enjoying the fun.

Thoughts on being elected to Council of Fellows:No opinion has as much meaning or is as significant as that of ones peers. No honor is more meaningful. To receive recognition from those best qualified to pass judgment on a lifetime of work is as humbling and satisfying as anyone in the applied arts can hope for.
