Architecture degree from Virginia Tech. Jamie became involved with the AIA during his
undergraduate studies, serving on the Virginia Tech AIAS board as Treasurer, President, and
then Past President. In these roles, he focused on securing chapter funding and increasing
membership. He also served on the AIA Blue Ridge board as the student representative.

After graduating from architecture school, Jamie worked at Winstanley Architects and Planners
in Alexandria, Virginia. While there, he worked primarily on mixed use, hospitality and
education projects. He served on the AIA DC Emerging Architects Committee, the AIA Northern
Virginia Schools Connection Committee, and the Northern Virginia Young Architects Forum. He

Jamie relocated to Miami at the end of 2019, where he continued to work on hospitality and

Jamie joined the AIA Miami Board of directors in 2022, serving as a Director through 2023, Vice President through 2024 before, being elected to his current President Elect role for the 2025 calendar year.

perspectives and ideas. He believes young and emerging architects have a wealth of varying
perspectives to contribute to their fellow architects, the AIA, and the profession as a whole.
