He served in World War I in the Air Corps and earned a Distinguished Service Cross. He moved to Bronxville, New York in 1919 and was in practice there until his death in 1934. He married Lucia Meigs, granddaughter of William Van Duzer Lawrence (1842–1927), in 1921. In 1924, he designed the house at 105 Lee Circle, Lynchburg, Virginia, now included in the Rivermont Historic District.
