As a Project Architect at MSA, my role involves every phase of project management from conceptual design brainstorming through construction administration.

I work closely with principals and clients on a variety of “halo projects” for the office where circumstances allow for a higher level of design than typical projects.

Major design objectives include improvement of patron experience which manifests in food service, branding, and “touch point” experiences.
