Designer
From UNC Greensboro to the INTEC Group design studio, Logan has quickly become an asset in the world of interior design. With an eye for detail and an affinity for both the technical and creative aspects of design, she particularly enjoys applying her growing skillset to multi-family projects. She’s all about the “big reveal,” when months of diligent planning culminate in fulfillment and client satisfaction. For creative fuel, she looks to her colleagues or explores LinkedIn to stay updated on industry trends. And while design has always been her chosen path, she can also imagine a world of postpartum nursing, swapping fabric swatches for swaddling techniques.

Project Architect
Alex is a seasoned Project Architect who began her journey earning both her bachelor’s and master’s degrees from UNC Charlotte. She is a registered architect in NC and excels at connecting with people – identifying their strengths and leveraging these insights to lead and inspire her team. She thrives during concept development where she gets to write compelling narratives and outline the “big moves” that shape the direction of a project. Alex enjoys the diversity of projects that come across her desk, but her passion lies in ground-up, multi-family projects. Outside work, she finds inspiration through travel and cultural immersion or by taking walks. If she weren’t shaping the built environment, she would be shaping minds, as her love for mentoring would lead her to a career in teaching.

Director of Architecture
Our Director of Architecture, a Virginia Tech alum with more than 18 years in the field, is a licensed architect and a connoisseur of building codes. Ashley takes pride in her ability to handle a variety of projects, each presenting unique challenges that allow her the opportunity to showcase her architectural expertise. The true highlight of her job, though, is witnessing the professional growth of her team – a group she considers the best in the business. Had she not ventured into architecture, she’d likely be imparting wisdom as a teacher or exploring the human mind as a psychologist – not so different from being an architect after all.

Meet Nick, an Associate Architect from Virginia Tech. Despite his brief tenure in architecture, he approaches his projects with maturity and a deep interest in how people feel and interact with the spaces he creates. He thrives in the collaborative aspect of the design process, especially when brainstorming with teammates to solve design challenges. Nick’s inspiration is reflected within his passport, which is more than just a travel document – it’s a sourcebook of ideas. His time studying abroad in Switzerland, and adventures across Europe, have influenced his personal design philosophy by infusing diverse cultures and architectural styles. If not for architecture, he’d still be rolling up his sleeves and getting his hands dirty in Industrial Design or Mechanical Engineering.

Senior Brand Manager
Erin, INTEC Group’s Senior Brand Manager, once pursued the idea of becoming an architect during her days at the University of Illinois. But as fate would have it, she eventually traded in blueprints for brand strategies, finding her niche in marketing. Fifteen years and countless initiatives later, she’s the team’s go-to for getting things done, as her passion for impact is evident in every aspect of her work. The most fulfilling aspect of her job is not just winning projects through compelling proposals but also showcasing the team’s hard work and achievements to the world. Off the clock, Erin draws inspiration from HGTV and scrolling Pinterest. While she once aspired to be a Disney Imagineer, she has also contemplated a future in real estate, potentially flipping houses.

As an NCIDQ-certified designer, she excels at 3D modeling, digital graphics, and the increasingly rare skill of hand sketching. She finds her spark in the early phases of design where the possibilities feel endless, and a project’s visual identity begins; but she also looks forward to a project’s completion and standing in a space she once only imagined. Her work on faith-based projects is close to her heart, blending her spiritual life with her professional skills. If not for her career in design, she imagines life as a textile artist and small business owner, sourcing vintage textiles and quilts to create one-of-a-kind pieces.

Maeve, a Virginia Tech grad with a Bachelor of Science in Interior Design and a minor in Sustainability is one of our talented designers. Her creativity knows no bounds – from concept development to creating inspiration boards and making bold design decisions, she thrives on the artistic aspects of the design process. However, her favorite phase is Design Development, where she curates finish palettes, refines interior layouts, and finalizes significant design elements. While her experience is limited, she enjoys life science projects but aspires to work on more hospitality projects in the future. For inspiration, Maeve either opens her sketchbook to draw or delves into online architecture and design articles. If she weren’t a designer, she’d likely be working in the environmental sustainability field while traveling the world.

He’s also passionate about human-centered design, focused on creating environments that prioritize the needs and well-being of individuals. When in need of inspiration, John rolls out the tracing paper, because “sometimes you just need to think with the tip of a pen.” If he weren’t running an office, he would spend his days building boats instead of graphs and Excel spreadsheets.
