“Kori has (happily!) taken on so much more than her ID I role requires of her over the past year. She has navigated the turbulent waters of changing Studio Leads and PM’s on her projects, and has worked very hard to gain the experience, proactive attitude, and collaboration skills needed to move into a role with more responsibilities. I’m excited to watch her continue to hone these skills and flourish as an ID II!”

“Jenna has jumped into our studio with confidence this year, tackling new sectors and project types for the first time. She’s incredibly professional, proactive, and an excellent communicator.

I look forward to watching her continue this growth as an ID II!”

She is impressive with clients, exhibits natural leadership skills, and is always eager to learn as much as she can from every situation.

“Jeff is already doing this role by solving scheduling issues for the office as a whole, promoting office initiatives, onboarding & training staff on the use of Vantagepoint for project planning. He has a ton of great ideas to improve how we operate and is a fantastic leader! His strong leadership eased the transition for the Residential and Mixed Use studios joining the Commercial studio, to create a stronger, cohesive group. He truly cares about the people at MA Design.”

His organizational skills and his guidance for his teammates has been recognized by his peers. He demonstrates further dedication to the firm with his involvement with Revit and Standards committees.

Taking on new roles and responsibilities and guiding a team to meet deadlines with a complicated building and a demanding client, she has taken on nearly every role a project has to some level and handled it with professionalism and intelligence. Her dedication to the project, her teammates and the firm are to be commended.”

Zach has covered project phases from Proposal Concepts through Construction Administration and everything in between. He is the architectural lead for Jones Heel that includes renovation design and new design all in the same project. That versatility is part of the reason Zach has become a go-to person in the studio and firm.”

His ability to notice potential problems and propose solutions is one of his greatest strengths.”

She has wholeheartedly embraced the affordable housing market and has quickly developed an extensive knowledge of it. Her “can-do” attitude is a driving force behind this promotion. We’re excited to see her take on challenges in this expanded role.”

“David has consistently demonstrated a commitment to personal growth and learning. He has a willingness to ask insightful questions and has an overall curiosity about the practice of architecture. David takes a methodical approach to problem solving that is not only appreciated by clients but also his team members as he works to develop drawings and details.
