Darling and McCormack Announced as Principals at SMMA
January 17, 2024
SMMA has announced two promotions to the role of principal: architect and Design Technology Manager Dave Darling, and Director of Administration Heather McCormack.
A precedent-setting sustainability initiative completed by SMMA for EMC at the company’s Hopkinton, Massachusetts, headquarters won top honors in CoreNet Global New England’s 2012 Awards of Excellence.
SMMA principal Dana Watts, AIA, recently served on the NC Technology Association’s panel on “Building North Carolina’s Data Center Corridor.” Dana’s 31 years of mission critical experience complemented expertise from panelists representing DukeNet Communications, DataChambers, and Womble Carlyle.
Designed to provide learning environments where positive socialization can flourish, five schools designed by SMMA opened this week across Massachusetts. Students ranging from kindergartners to high school seniors were welcomed by their teachers into Wellesley High, Grafton High, Tewksbury Memorial High, Billerica Parker Elementary and The Center Schools.
“The demand for high-performing school buildings is constant, and we should see the funding for those projects increase as the economy continues to recover,” says Alex Pitkin, Senior Vice President & Director of Institutional Practice Studios at SMMA. “SMMA has found success focusing our attention on making the most of every dollar by helping our K-12 clients engage their communities and integrate public programs into the planning and design of their schools.”
