What was your greatest professional achievement or most notable project in the last 12 months?
Leading the EverGreene’s team on Enoch Pratt Free Library’s restoration, coined as the ‘Jewel of the City of Baltimore,’ working with Binder Beyer Belle Architects and Gilbane. Over the last three years, this multi-phased construction consists of complicated coordination–bringing back beautiful ornamentation and decoration lost for decades, and seamlessly integrating modern systems: sprinklers, lighting, acoustic and audio-visual. As a Baltimore native, this library is significant to my professional development. It is where I discovered my path to graduate school, and a career in historic preservation and architectural conservation. I am proud of this restoration, as it will bring new life to a valued community resource and keep the history of this building gleaming for future generations to come. Completion is scheduled for Summer 2019.
