A lifelong Alaskan, Diane brings over 20 years of dedicated experience in architectural design tailored to medical and rural environments across the state. She joined Architects Alaska in 2006 while completing her Master of Architecture degree at Montana State University. Prior to that, she gained experience working for a small design-build company in Anchorage.

She is experienced in facility master planning, facility assessments, space planning, and design, with a focus on technical and complex settings that require a high degree of coordination. With a deep connection to the Anchorage community, Diane has collaborated closely with local building departments, adapting national codes to better serve the area’s specific needs.

Beyond architecture, Diane remains focused on raising her three children. She enjoys transforming her Anchorage home into an urban homestead and diving into DIY home projects where she can apply her professional skills.
