Megan Holz, RA
Senior Project Architect
H2M architects + engineers

“Megan has a tremendous ability to take control of a process and master it quickly. Whether it’s client management, team management, design or construction documents, or project management, she steps up, solves problems, and creates tremendous value. We appreciate her dedication and what it means for her team and H2M as a whole.” - Kevin Paul, AIA, NCARB, LEED AP, CFM, Senior Vice President | Director - Private Sector Architecture at H2M architects + engineers.

What recent project, accomplishment or award are you most proud of? Currently, I’m most proud of the Gold Coast Public Library project. It’s still under construction, but I’ve been involved in this project since the very beginning, and it feels amazing watching the design and construction documents that I created come to life. This will definitely be a project I remember forever.

What do you like best about being a woman in the AEC industry? I love this industry because every day is different from the next and there are always different opportunities. One day I’m sketching an idea out with the project team, and the next day I’m in the field solving a problem. In this industry, you get to meet new people, see different products, and explore new project types.
