Mark Nielsen, AIA, LEED AP

With 30 years of experience in both architecture and construction, Mark has successfully delivered a wide range of projects, with a focus on CMGC (Construction Manager/General Contractor) mixed-use developments. His portfolio includes multi-family, higher education, senior housing, mixed-use, and affordable housing projects, where he has consistently demonstrated a strong ability to manage complex planning, design, and construction efforts aligned with client priorities, budgets, and community goals.

As Architectural Group Manager, Mark leads multidisciplinary teams through all phases of project delivery—from concept through construction—ensuring design excellence, technical quality, and client satisfaction. He is deeply involved in team coordination, stakeholder engagement, and aligning design solutions with regulatory and funding requirements.

Mark’s unique strength lies in his dual background in both architecture and construction, giving him the insight to bridge design intent with constructability. This integrated perspective allows him to anticipate challenges early, streamline collaboration between disciplines, and deliver solutions that are as buildable as they are thoughtful.
