Bio

A licensed architect, Tracie specializes in bringing people together to solve problems. Her experience and interests are diverse; with a background in master planning, architecture, teaching and research.

She believes that school designers should be comfortable teaching in schools and working with students and educators. She is a certified cycling and pedestrian safety educator regularly giving presentations to students on safe walking and biking. Additionally, she runs a weekly robotics and technology club, and coaches an Odyssey of the Mind team for students in grades K-6 at Waynflete School in Portland.

When not at the office, Tracie can be found volunteering on the Advocacy Committee of the Maine AIA, and at Merrill Auditorium, Friends of Congress Square Park and the Portland Symphony Orchestra. In her free time she enjoys racing Etchells on Casco Bay, cycling, bowling at Bayside Bowl, and swing dancing.
