Andrew Grote

AIA, LEED AP BD+C
Principal, Operations Director, Boston

From a young age, Andrew simply loved to learn. He wanted to explore all subjects, from math and science to writing and art. This genuine enthusiasm for knowledge quickly led him to architecture, a profession where he could exercise his creativity, integrate diverse disciplines, and tackle complex problems. That’s why he’s committed his career to the design of educational facilities; he hopes to pass on his zest for learning to tomorrow’s students, to inspire the next wave of innovators.

As Operations Director, and a veteran project manager, Andrew focuses on empowering teams to learn and grow in their own way. He understands that successful teams are made up of engaged individuals who, at the end of a project, can clearly see how their work contributed to its overall success.
