Being a designer is like being a river-rafting guide—the guide knows the river’s course, but every run is a different experience. As an architect, Craig’s goal is to get everyone in the raft and successfully down the river. He has become one of CannonDesign’s high-performing “guides” over the past 25 years.
Drawn by the opportunity to marry his love for creative aesthetic and technical design, Craig curates spaces that help students not only succeed academically but also develop into good citizens. With experience that stretches across various campus typologies, he knows that each client is different, each project is different and each challenge is complex—but his fervor to deliver impact for clients never subsides.
