“We don’t just talk about collaboration; we actually do it.”
For Evelyn, a career in architecture is not just a collection of buildings, but a series of relationships. Her passion for design started as a way to combine her love of both arts and sciences, and her clients are key to her creative process.
Evelyn studied art as an undergraduate and went to architecture school as an opportunity to think scientifically about the creative process. Her greatest satisfaction comes from her design ideas built and implemented. She is proud to have a body of work that positively impacts communities.
She says the biggest strength of MCG Explore Design is its culture of collaboration with team members, clients, engineers, and contractors, because it means ideas can come from all corners.
Active in the community, Evelyn currently serves on the Boards of the Anchorage Community Development Authority and the Anchorage Symphony Orchestra. She was a board member of the Alaska Design Forum and a member and volunteer of the American Institute of Architects (AIA) Alaska Chapter. When not in the office, she enjoys spending time with her horse, Jenny.
