About Jack:
Jack is an Associate and registered Architect who brings a diverse range of interests in architecture, interiors, furniture, textiles, and placemaking to his work at Utile. Since joining the firm in 2017, Jack has focused on creating functional, equitable, and accessible interior environments using efficient space planning techniques, comprehensive material and furniture selections, and innovative fabrication methods. He has led and contributed to a wide range of commercial, academic, institutional, and multi-family amenity fit-outs and renovations at Utile, including the Kendall Square Workplace 4 as lead Designer for 50,000+ sf of workspace and amenities, as well as the Kendall Square Lobby 1 and Kendall Square Egress Stairs as Project Manager and Designer. Throughout all of his work, he combines his many years of experience in architecture with his exposure to on-site construction to deliver impactful and efficient interior environments that put the human experience at the center.
As a former founding co-chair of Utile’s Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion initiative (JEDI), Jack is one of the many people dedicated to the firm-wide effort of reexamining the role that architects and designers play in improving and valuing the lives of Black, Indigenous, and People of Color, ensuring that our impact on the communities we serve aligns with our commitment to equity and anti-racist design. It is through this lens that Jack examines all of his work in order to create meaningful and accessible environments.
Prior to joining Utile, Jack completed both his Bachelor of Science in Architecture with a minor in Urban Design Studies and his Master of Architecture at Northeastern University, where he was the university’s sole recipient of the 2019 AIA Henry Adams Medal of excellence. Born and raised in Maryland, Jack now lives in East Boston, where he enjoys all forms of cooking, caring for his house plants, and finding new ways to spoil his Frenchie, Wilbur.
