Sam is a member of the American Institute of Architects, NCARB Certified, is a LEED Accredited Professional, and a member of the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat, where he previously served as the City Representative for New York. Sam's design leadership is reflected in projects across the globe, with his most recent notable works, Coppia in Chicago's West Loop and Alcove in downtown Nashville, completed during his time at his previous firm.
"I am really excited to build on the incredible history and expertise of KTGY and to be a part of shaping the future of the Chicago studio," says Sam. "The collaborative energy of the company is truly refreshing, and I look forward to seeing what we can accomplish together."
