In the past year, what project or accomplishment are you most proud of? Developing a manifesto for our resource library that helps FXCollaborative architects and designers make better informed decisions. We look at materials through three lenses: Sustainability and Climate Change; Health and Well Being; and Equity, Social Justice, and Ethical Sourcing.

What was a pivotal point in your career? Joining FXCollaborative +25 years ago (Fox & Fowle at the time). 

What is your favorite building in New York? I have two: 
• Grand Central Terminal – Great public space; designed as a people mover in 1913 and still relevant today. One of the best train stations in the world. 
• Eero Saarinen’s CBS Building – a solid granite building that kinetically engages the passer-by. Truly urban and of its place. A NYC experience.

Which professional associations or organizations would you recommend to women who are starting out in the AEC industry? For architects: AIANY Women in Architecture Committee
