Design Director, Principal
Perkins+Will
Ron’s first exposure to design was in the fourth grade, when his family constructed a new home near Shaker Heights, Ohio. Fascinated by the interplay of light and space, Ron knew he wanted to pursue a career in architecture as soon as it was completed.
In junior high, Ron continued his studies in light and experimented with photography, processing images in his own darkroom. His time spent documenting the world around him sharpened his appreciation for the visual language of storytelling.
An award-winning designer, Ron’s multi-faceted interest in design spans several disciplines including architecture, interiors, brand experience and urban design. His hands-on approach is not only highly collaborative, but also heavily research-based.
Ron believes that architecture is the connective tissue that unites people, place, and culture. This philosophy informs every project he undertakes. His passion for enhancing the public realm motivates him to the core.
