Inspired at SMMA
When Jennifer first joined SMMA, she was excited to be a part of a integrated firm. She now deeply appreciates how easy it is to get feedback from engineers and other professionals."You can exchange thoughts and ideas during the very early, schematic stages," she says. "I haven't encountered any cons to the integrated firm model yet, and I don't expect to."
She was also pleasantly surprised by the diversity within her own field - architecture. "The range of expertise here at SMMA is really inspiring. I'm learning so much just by observing my colleagues' different interests and the ways that they approach the design process."
New Perspectives
Outside of work, Jennifer spends a lot of time sailing and visiting art museums. Thankfully, her home base of Providence is ideal for both pursuits.
