ALL LEADERSHIP

“It is tremendously rewarding to partner with our clients to positively impact the lives of those in our communities through the design of the built environment.”

“Being a part of a team that is truly passionate about creating a firm that has profound impact on the communities we serve while building on our core pillars of relationships, performance, and design motivates me every day.”

“Successful Civic projects have one major characteristic in common:  Collaborative Teams.  Good ideas come from anyone on the Team.  I am passionate about leading Teams through the collaborative process to achieve great design and build a facility that meets and exceeds expectations in every way.”

“I love working with our clients to take advantage of the opportunity in projects to not only design excellent facilities, but the opportunity to create positive change in the individual lives affected by these facilities.”

“I believe that there is great opportunity in every school project, large or small.  Working collaboratively with engaged stakeholders allows us to design projects that truly make a difference. Delivering an inspiring project that positively impacts students and the school community is an amazing feeling.”

“My role is to design an approach, assemble the right resources, and guide a collaborative process towards outcomes that advance the client’s mission.”

“The art of architecture cannot be realized without engineering creativity and innovation. I enjoy our integrated approach that allows me to collaborate with our architects to make our clients desires a reality.”

“One of the most rewarding feelings is seeing a long term client relationship develop from the beginning of our first project to a partnership where we trust, value, and leverage each other’s strengths to create truly great environments together.”

“I am passionate about making a positive impact on people’s lives by building and maintaining relationships that are bound by trust, compassion, mutual respect, and collaboration.”

“I thrive on understanding and creating realities for my clients, community and team.”

“My passion lies in bringing great design and technology together to exceed our client’s needs, while mentoring the next generation of architects”

“California’s Community College system is a huge piece of who I am, so I’ve loved paying it forward, spending almost all of my career in Higher Education design.”

“I enjoy the entire process of either transforming an existing school or developing a new campus by taking a project through programming, design, and construction. The most rewarding part of being a school architect is the first day of school when the students, staff and entire community can celebrate their new environment.”

“It is truly a great honor to be a part of a profession that has every opportunity to positively affect the daily lives of all people.”

“Workplaces that are planned and designed correctly, enhance the human experience, build community, and provide the backdrop for augmenting culture for the better.”

“Well designed space has such a positive impact on people who live and work in buildings. I love working collaboratively with clients to create those spaces and ultimately bring their program and vision to life.”

“As a Healthcare Architect, I am passionately driven to positively affect people’s lives through a collaborative project delivery process resulting in successful designs. While performing my leadership role on projects and within Lionakis, I am always humbled by and learn from the various clients, contractors, consultants, and peers with whom I interact.”

“The most satisfying aspect of what we do as Architects is engaging with our talented clients, colleagues, and construction partners.  I have had the great privilege of forming close relationships over the years, working collaboratively, and learning from these very capable individuals.  Working together we will continue to develop thoughtfully designed projects in support of our clients’ mission and the communities in which they reside.”
