"I am humbled to receive such prestigious recognition from my peers within the profession. As an architect, mentor and teacher, I am delighted to have the opportunity to engage people - my clients, my staff and especially my students - in the creative process and to encourage an understanding that architecture influences our daily lives and that design matters."
