Emile C. Alano

AIA, LEED AP

Vice President, COO

As the Vice President and COO, Emile manages people and projects. Although finding and securing good talent can be challenging, he loves to see our staff develop and grow within the office. Along with hiring employees, Emile manages several retail and hospitality projects; however, he describes himself as more of a generalist who can work on several project types. If you walk into the office lunch room, it is very likely that Emile has already filled in all the newspaper crossword puzzles and Sudoku challenges. He describes himself as methodical and thoughtful, but is always the first one to break it out on the dance floor at our annual Christmas party.
