Jay is licensed as both an architect and general contractor in California. He has broad experience in many sectors, including industrial, workplace, civic, arts, and housing among others.
In his role as a principal and leader for our US West Mission Critical Studio, he leads a growing team of architects focused on data center design across the region, partnering with engineers and other professionals in our US and Canada offices. He seeks to change common perceptions and expectations for the project type by crafting engaging buildings and experiences for the people that interact daily with these facilities. He strives to create moments that both connect people with the technologies in new ways and allow for moments of respite and rest from the work they do.
When he isn¡¯t working on data center and mission critical efforts, Jay enjoys time with family, design-focused travel, wood and concrete craft projects, and a bit of golf.
