Ray holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Political Science & Philosophy from the University of Rhode Island and a Master of Architecture from RISD. A Newport, RI, native and the second of five brothers, Ray has lived in Arizona, Florida, and Australia, with travels spanning Fiji, Tahiti, Colombia, Sudan, and Ethiopia.
Ray’s diverse career path includes roles as a light aircraft flight instructor, wooden yacht restorer, carpenter, and assistant brewmaster before answering his true calling of architecture. He admires Santiago Calatrava’s designs and has always been inspired by Michelangelo’s Pietà. Ray’s prized possession is his motorcycle, and he loves bacon and black-and-white films.
