What was your greatest professional achievement or most notable project in the last 12 months? This past year has been really positive for our company overall. We continued to grow with the addition of a new interior designer who builds on our current corporate interiors team and expands our capabilities in that sector. And, in addition to some really exciting workplace and building repositioning projects, we’ve also continued expanding into other sectors including incubator lab projects, a couple of med spas, as well as K-12/educational projects. All of which our incredible team has designed and managed with their usual high level of expertise and creative talent.

What made you interested in seeking a career in the AEC industry? In high school, I was taught by two inspirational women – my drafting teacher and the instructor who led a summer design camp – both got me very interested in architecture. One summer while still in high school I took a job as a receptionist at Number Ten Architectural Group in Winnipeg and continued to work there during summers after I graduated. Number Ten exposed me to the many aspects of architectural practice and the projects they were designing. I knew then that architecture was what I wanted to do for my career.
