Since 2000, Brian has been involved in the design, documentation and management of urban high-rise and mid-rise projects at Weber Thompson. As a Principal, Brian manages large, complex, multi-year projects from pre-design to construction administration; he is a leader in the Quality Management Task Force, and runs the firm’s internal Project Manager Forum. He brings an acute attention to design, constructability and budget, developing elegant, constructible and affordable solutions to complex design problems. Brian has taken on a role helping Weber Thompson further develop its Quality Management plan, and educating our team on the importance of quality management in our daily work.

Brian’s professional interests include the integration of housing, transit and urban design to create rich, exciting cities in which to live. He was part of the WT team that facilitated the South Lake Union Urban Design Framework charette process, and managed the documentation of the results for the City of Seattle to use in its final publication.

As part of his public involvement, he was involved with the Seattle viaduct / waterfront debate for over 15 years, co-producing the film “Viaduct? What Viaduct?” which questioned the need to simply replace the structure without improving the urban environment. He helped to form “Waterfront for All”, a coalition of urban design, environment, alternate transportation, and arts advocates, and working on the Waterfront For All Design Collaborative. Brian served as Allied Arts’ Waterfront Chair representing them on the Central Waterfront Committee and the Design Oversight Subcommittee.
