Simon’s journey in building and design is rooted in a distinguished education from the University of British Columbia’s School of Business, where he earned a degree in Finance with a minor in Design. His academic achievements are seamlessly complemented by the foundational values instilled by his father: meticulous attention to detail, exceptional organizational skills, and an unwavering commitment to honesty. These principles have shaped Simon’s approach to design since he began collaborating with his father on home and project designs at just 16 years old.
At Alto Builders, Simon brings a dynamic perspective, blending the timeless lessons from his early experiences with the advanced methodologies honed during his studies at UBC. His designs transcend mere structure, transforming spaces into stories that harmonize function and beauty.
