Forever an architect at his core, Alex has long been in love with design. When you speak with him about his career he talks about how “incredibly lucky” and “fortunate” he is to work in this industry. He echoes passion and gratitude.
But Alex is much more than just grateful, he’s also deeply talented. As our Houston/Dallas Business Practice Leader, he guides office leadership and project managers as they build teams, safeguard quality and optimize resources to provide our clients the best possible design solutions. He’s worked across essentially every market we serve—health, education, science, commercial—and is deeply nuanced in both the delivery and business of design.
Alex’s career has taken him all over North America, from British Columbia to Baltimore and now Houston. Again, he feels deep gratitude for the journey and he’s determined to pay the opportunities forward to our clients and future designers each day.
