Brian, a director based in our Chicago office, boasts a rich portfolio of residential builds across Chicago neighborhoods including Lincoln Park, Bucktown, and North Center. His journey began as a construction manager and residential developer, where he cultivated a deep understanding of the intricacies of the built environment.
Before joining Northworks, Brian honed his craft in diverse architectural landscapes, practicing in Pittsburgh, PA, and the San Francisco Bay Area before settling in Chicago in 2012. Throughout his career, he has lent his expertise to an array of projects, spanning residential, institutional, and commercial sectors, enriching his architectural perspective with each endeavor. Brian earned his Bachelor of Arts in Architecture from Washington University in St. Louis and is a licensed architect in Illinois and LEED AP certified. Brian is currently immersed in the architectural design of a clubhouse and a new lodge for the recently inaugurated Old Barnwell Golf Club in Aiken, South Carolina. This collaboration is proving to be a positive experience in an area of the country Northworks is excited to be working in.
Beyond his architectural pursuits, Brian enjoys outdoor adventures with his family, whether it’s playing sports, hiking, camping, enjoying lake activities, or embarking on new adventures together.
