Through Kelly’s personal travels and work experience, she's developed an appreciation for historic buildings. She strongly believes that successful communities should be comprised of a balance of both old and new structures. This interest drove her graduate studies at the University of Colorado where she received a Masters in both Architecture and the Science of Historic Preservation. With eight years of experience working on a variety of building types both old and new; Kelly believes that architecture should be sustainable, contextual, and most importantly, functional. She collaborates with her clients during every phase of the design process from schematic design through construction to make sure this is achieved.
