Since joining the firm in 2012, he has worked closely with the U.S. Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard to develop specialized facility studies and installation plans throughout the country. As Partner, Andy will help co-manage a team of 20 planners, architects, and designers dedicated to the firm’s federal sector.
