A beach with a sunset

Favorite place in the world

Any warm, sandy beach, with a cocktail.

When not working you can find me here

In my vineyard, tending my vines.

What you don’t know about me

I ran the San Diego marathon with a stress fracture in my heel. 26.1 miles. Give me another challenge!

In another life I’m pretty sure I was

A sailor! I love the water and can’t get enough of boat rides, the beach and exotic sands.

My guilty pleasure is

A lemon drop martini (or two!)…I am a snob, so don’t make them clear.

I collect

Photos of our travels. I have over 28,000 photos on my phone.

AIA

It’s no surprise that Kristen makes every project in the office run like clockwork. As an experienced Architect and Project Manager, Kristen supervises the staff in the preparation of all phases of documentation, and is involved in projects from start to finish. Look up “indispensable” in the dictionary and you should see a picture of her.

Why Aptus?

Aptus is real, no ego and all personality.

Earliest architectural memory

I had a drafting class in high school, and the teacher wanted us to draw an “elevation” of our house. And I almost gave up because I didn’t know what that was! Thanks to my mother, I didn’t give up.

I’m most inspired by

All the people who told me women didn’t belong in architecture. Don’t tell me I cannot do something. You just gave me a challenge, which I live for.

If I could time travel, I would go to

Ancient Egypt to see how the pyramids were really built, and how they transported the obelisks all the way from Aswan to Luxor.
