Chas has extensive experience working on complex project types with public, private, and non-profit clients, often involving multiple stakeholders. Chas’ strong leadership skills guide the process of design to assure that the scope, schedule, and budget are articulated in the project documents and that the documents and estimates are at an appropriate level of completion and accuracy at each stage of a project.

Chas’s experience is rounded out by his involvement in numerous professional organizations, and he was recently elevated to the American Institute of Architects’ (AIA) College of Fellows. He is listed as an approved Historic Preservation Consultant with the State of Ohio Preservation Office, and he actively serves on Boards for several religious and civic organizations in and around Akron, OH.

I have always considered the profession of architecture to be a “people” business that focuses on service to our Clients as much as quality of design. Success is relationship driven which comes from doing great work, but also from being engaged in the communities we serve. I consider it a privilege to be part of a profession that has a positive and direct impact on the lives of those that experience our work.
