Sarah Kleiner, AIA, Principal, Envisage Architecture LLC. “I was inspired by the AIA Women’s Leadership Summit last year. I highly recommend going, even for men in architecture. I am looking forward to the events that are coming up to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Zaha Hadid’s Contemporary Arts Center, which coincides with the 75th anniversary of the Terrace Plaza hotel designed by Natalie DuBlois, and the 25th anniversary of the death of India Boyer, the first woman architect to be licensed in Ohio.”

Norma M. Williams, AIA, Senior Project Architect, Envisage Architecture. “Coordination in the field of the construction, and seeing the design come together, piece by piece was amazing. The project was 1.5 million square feet, the daily site tours were a learning experience on each aspect of design and construction. Lessons learned in real time.”

Monica Lowry, Senior Project Manager, Burgess & Niple. “Growing up I was always creating something—furniture for my dolls, ideas for a club house, or ways we could renovate our house so I could (finally!) get my own room. I never got my own room but did cultivate a deep passion for creating spaces.”

Tommy Brand, Owner, Phantom Sound. “I love the famous quote from Aldous Huxley, ‘After silence, that which comes neatest to expressing the inexpressible is music.’ We just finished a custom home project featuring automation controls, security, smart lighting, motorized shades, and most importantly, whole home sound. The customer did not want to see the speakers and that is what we do best.”
