It was a great day for driving that autumn morning. The sun was shining; the music was playing, then BAM! As the SUV hit the front end of my small Coupe, the bumper bent first. Next, the crash box and then frame deformed inward dissipating energy. The crash energy continued thorough the steering column past a faulty airbag into my unlucky forehead. Other than a headache and some small stitches, I was fortunate to walk away. Twenty years ago the outcome would have been very different. This recent focus on energy dissipation has saved lives in more than just the automotive industry. Modern buildings are also designed to dissipate energy during a seismic event.

Don’t let the brand-new buildings and high-tech classrooms fool you: Swan Falls High School has deep connections to the past. Named after nearby Swan Falls Dam, the high school has honored its connection to the history of the area with an impressive commitment to its future — through energy efficiency.

Please tell us about yourself.
It is my pleasure to say I am an Idaho native from southern Idaho, went to school in Boise, and then transferred to the University of Idaho where I found my people and passion for architecture. I have been licensed for about 30 years, have been a part of the same company, and have helped it grow to the multi-state, work-from-anywhere culture we have today. I was the first female stockholder in a firm that is over a century old.

Please tell us about yourself.
I grew up here in Idaho and love this state. I married a wonderful man from Wyoming and we have two incredible daughters that keep us wildly busy. I attended the University of Idaho and graduated in 2005 with my Masters in Architecture. I came to work with LKV Architects in 2005, and in 2014, I was made a Partner in the firm. I have been learning and growing in that position since that time.

Please tell us about yourself.
Upon graduation from the University of Idaho, I moved to Green Bay, Wisconsin, to begin my career at an integrated architecture and engineering firm. I moved back to Idaho in the early 2000s and started working at Lombard/Conrad Architects. I started as an intern, and nearly 20 years later, I am a Partner and President of the firm.
