Design as Service
Design as Service
These interviews spotlight designers from across °λ΅ΊΜεΣύβs integrated design practice β� from interior design to client leadership β� who draw from their time spent somewhere on the continuum of service to our county β� from military spouse to veteran.
Resilience and Leadership
βThere are several service opportunities that I and other employees at °λ΅ΊΜεΣύ stay involved with,β� says Principal and Federal Programs Leader Michael Huffstetler, LEED AP, F.SAME. Whether through unparalleled client leadership or society involvement, Mike continues to find ways to serve others while at °λ΅ΊΜεΣύ.
Community and Transition
βBeing a military spouse allowed and afforded me the opportunity to develop leadership skills,β� says Helen. In addition to the elevated designs Helen contributes to our K-12 sector, her personal experience as a military spouse allows her to work with families transitioning back into civilian life.
Collaboration and Growth
βI got into this job not knowing anything. Itβs one of those jobs where you learn best by working on the job. So, thanks to °λ΅ΊΜεΣύ for giving me the opportunity to learn so early, itβs already paid off with my education,β� says Design Intern Erick Garcia. Walking parallel paths as a Combat Engineer in the National Guard and an aspiring designer with °λ΅ΊΜεΣύ, Erick sees a harmony between his duty and passion.
