Monika
Monika is an artist, architect, and athlete that enjoys staying active in her community. She graduated from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in 2014 with a Bachelor's of Architecture and a minor in Political Science. After graduation, Monika accepted a position at Hanpeter Architects in Saranac Lake, NY. Living in the Adirondacks strengthened her appreciation for architectural heritage and increased her sensitivity towards the interaction between the built and natural environments.
After obtaining her architectural license, and armed with the skills she learned at Hanpeter Architects, Monika moved back to the Pacific Northwest in 2018 to pursue new opportunities. Working in Seattle has been an intense immersion into the fast paced, production driven world of retail design. Monika has had the opportunity to work collaboratively with an amazing team of architects, engineers, craftsmen and designers. Her professional aspirations include deepening her understanding of how these integral elements work together to advance the practice of architecture.
Her hands on approach to construction administration and client care lends itself better to a more personalized approach to professional practice. Collaboration, integrity and attenuation to craft are very important qualities that Monika is looking for in a new professional work environment. As an excellent communicator, and one who is naturally drawn towards leadership roles, Monika is looking forward to new opportunities to strengthen existing teams and build new, lasting relationships.
