Peter leads design teams that intelligently conceive, creatively develop and meticulously execute highly challenging projects. He has been responsible for some of the firm’s most recognized work, including the highly acclaimed Milken Institute School of Public Health at George Washington University, a rare recipient of both an AIA Honor Award and a COTE Top Ten Award.
