HOK

“I first met HOK at a career fair at Arizona State University. A few weeks later I interviewed in HOK’s Los Angeles studio. Although I had studied architecture, I soon fell into the world of interiors and workplace design. I could not have asked for a better opportunity. I love the fast-paced nature of the work and the attention to detail. HOK has provided me with continuous opportunities to develop as an individual and professional. Over the past 12 years I have worked in three different HOK offices (LA, New York and Chicago) and on a wide variety of projects. I have learned so much collaborating with our talented team across the globe. I’m proud of how our people also push the industry forward through HOK research and thought leadership. ”

“In my five years at HOK, I’ve been fortunate to work on a variety of project types and scales, from master plans to multi-use developments to standalone buildings and even lobby renovations. Diverse projects not only challenge me to learn and grow but also broaden my exposure across our industry. HOK promotes mentorship, and I’ve enjoyed spearheading our New York mentorship program the last three years. Recently, I was invited to sit in on meetings of the Management Board, where I’ve learned more about the business side of the company. HOK also recognizes and supports our lives outside the office. We've welcomed countless additions to the ‘HOK family’ over the years. Last year I found the same support when my child arrived. We share in each other's success and help each other in challenging times.”
