This summer saw some new faces around the AOS offices. Dillon Horwitz and Julia Lu joined us as Interns, while we also welcome Drew McMillian, Project Architect, and Austin Huber, Project Designer, to the AOS team.
Dillon has been supporting staff in the Philadelphia office. Dillon received his B.A. in Architecture from the University of Pennsylvania, and is entering his final year in the Master of Architecture program at the Princeton University School of Architecture. During the summer he assisted on survey and schematic design work for exterior renovations to Worth Hall, Bond Memorial Hall, and the Lodges at Swarthmore College, and for Renovations to 110, 114, and 116 Prospect Avenue at Princeton University.

She has been supporting the team on construction drawings for Modern Elder Academy in Galisteo, NM.
Drew, a Registered Architect and LEED Accredited Professional, joined our team in Santa Fe. Drew is interested in the connections between design, historic preservation, and sustainability.

He holds a Bachelor of Architecture with Honors from the University of Texas at Austin and a Master of Science in Design - Historic Preservation from the University of Pennsylvania.
