With over 16 years of professional experience, I have designed and led a broad range of projects throughout my career. From a collaborative public art installation to a 4-story high school addition, from high-end residential projects to a large-scale corporate landscape. I have led all aspects of projects from Pre-Design through Construction Administration. While the project types vary widely, the thread that ties my work together is a deep interest in the tangible nature of buildings and their ability to shape the lived experience of their inhabitants.
In 2018, I moved to Grand Junction CO for the unbeatable access to public lands and the promise of a smaller, more closely-knit community. In 2024 I started my own firm here - VAN MONTFRANS ARCHITECTURE. I'm excited to establish professional roots and contribute to this place and state I now call home.
