Maya Angelou once said,
“You can’t use up creativity. The more you use, the more you have.” It’s an insight that consistently motivates Katie as she works to design spaces that are as sustainable and universally accessible as they are meaningful to the people who live, work, study, and play within them. Her studio work at Cal Poly SLO, which spanned diverse explorations from adaptive educational spaces for primary students to envelope-pushing skyscraper designs, set the stage for her current role as project designer working on projects across ABA’s health & wellness, education, and community practices. Drawing inspiration from pioneering women architects such as Julia Morgan, she supports teams not only with her imagination but with her thoughtful and multi-faceted focus on people as the heart of architectural experiences.
