Erin is a problem-solving and detail-oriented architect with experience in both new construction and renovation projects. She has worked on a number of K-12 school projects and considers school design to be a favorite due to its unique ability to connect a community and inspire pride in present and future generations. With over 10 years of experience, Erin has worked on projects in all our sectors, but highlights include major renovation projects at both Eliot Schools in Boston’s North End neighborhood, La Victoire in Boston’s Bay Village area, and the ground-up new construction of Gladstone Elementary School in Cranston, Rhode Island. Erin’s favorite phase of a project is Construction Administration because of the real-time problem solving it requires and the fulfillment of watching a design on paper come to life.
Erin is an active member of Finegold Alexander’s Sustainability Committee which promotes sustainable design practices, develops firm standards, and assists project teams. She is also a member of our Internship Committee which plans and guides interns’ time with us to optimize their experience. Erin is also an active member of multiple professional groups including serving as a 2025-2027 Board Member of the AIA Kansas City Chapter, being a member of the Association for Learning Environments (A4LE), participating in AIA Kansas City’s Education Outreach Committee, and participating in ACE Mentoring.
Erin earned her Master of Architecture from the Boston Architectural College, and her Bachelor of Arts from Rockhurst University. Outside of work, you’ll find Erin chasing her three small boys around and trying to hunt down a NE IPA in Kansas City that most closely resembles those in New England.

What makes you laugh? Laffy Taffy wrapper jokes. They get me every time.
What would you sing at Karaoke night? Definitely Spice Girls – Wannabe…oh, or BIG – Juicy.
If you could go back in time to change one thing, what would it be? I’m not so much in the camp of changing things; I’m more a fan of learning from the lesson and moving forward.
