Justin is a graduate of Syracuse University School of Architecture. Prior to opening JMFA, he worked with several notable Kiawah Island and Charleston area architects. In that time, he was involved in the design and development of a PUD neighborhood and gained experience working on over thirty high-quality custom homes on Kiawah Island. A booming hospitality industry in Charleston also led to his involvement in several hotel projects and over twenty independent fine dining bars and restaurants.

JMFA opened in 2011 with continued focus on custom Kiawah Island homes and fine dining bars and restaurants. Justin is a member of the NCARB and is licensed to practice Architecture in multiple jurisdictions. Since 2011, JMFA has completed projects in South Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, North Carolina and Washington D.C.
