Professional Background: Tom‘s first exposure to working in the architectural field came from working in wood-frame construction. His passion for the industry grew, and he soon realized that as an architect he would be afforded more creative license to design structures that would have a lasting impact on the community. Tom brings over 14 years of project management experience to our team at Aufgang. Prior to joining our firm, he spent several years at various other firms in the city and Westchester County, where he gained experience leading the development of projects ranging from single family residential units to multi-family mid-rise structures and interiors.

Position: As a Studio Director at Aufgang, Tom is a leader in all aspects of project development – from designing the beginning concept, to overseeing the project through the construction process to completion. He has extensive knowledge and experience in project management, schematic design, project design development, construction drawings, design quality, and project construction. He is also a leader in building and maintaining client relationships, managing team’s workloads, and client and consultant coordination. Tom is a firm believer in the powerful role that technology plays in design, and avidly follows the latest technology trends as inspiration for efficient and innovative designs.

Personal Life: Outside of the architecture world, Tom enjoys spending time with family and friends and being active outdoors.
