About |
Jacob joined the team after graduating from UW-Milwaukee, where he obtained both his MArch and Bachelor of Science in Architecture Degrees. With a focus on ecological and sustainable design, Jacob's academic projects and research centered on how sustainable building practices can be used to revitalize communities; growing from individuals to the larger urban network. In addition, his thesis project explored the net-zero design of an urban high school aimed at both connecting its community and improving student performance by utilizing on-site food growth, energy production, and stormwater management and treatment. As Manager of Hanging Gardens’ Design Integration Team, Jacob brings a detail-oriented mindset in helping clients attain their project's aesthetic, performance, and budgetary goals. |
