Peggy is an excellent facilitator who can shepherd complex projects through all phases of a project from conception to completion and recognizes the importance of teamwork in achieving the best solutions to complex design challenges.

Her extensive portfolio includes the School of Medicine at Queen’s University; the LEED Gold Certified Life Sciences Centre at the University of British Columbia, the LEED Gold Certified Papadakis Integrated Science Building at Drexel University, the LEED Gold CI Public Health Ontario Central Laboratory, and the LEED Gold target Biological Sciences Complex Renewal at the University of British Columbia.
