Favorite MOA Project
Through years of designing schools, I have learned that even a simple change like new flooring can transform a classroom for those in it everyday. I approach every project with the same level of dedication, small or large.
Some projects, however, stand out in how rewarding they've been to be a part of. One of those has been my work on Adams 14 Summit Heights Junior High. We had the resources to create the exceptional spaces that the students and staff truly deserve. I see many schools each year and it is often difficult to witness the funding inequities in many schools, especially public schools, where students can feel overlooked and asked to learn in inadequate spaces. I am deeply motivated and rewarded when I get to help provide high-quality design that makes every student feel valued and inspired to reach their full potential.
