As a project manager for the City of Boston Public Facilities Department I work every day to help plan for and design some of our City's most public facing buildings. A large part of my job involves encouraging the engagement of community members in the planning and design process. I am excited to work with the BSA Board, committee members and general membership to help build upon and strengthen the important role that municipal and governmental bodies have in positively shaping the built environment.
