Alyssa is a firecracker, who knows she is good at what she does. This does not mean she is not constantly working to improve her process, and she helps OneStudio create streamline and efficient workflows in the office. She is meticulous and organized, and her drawings reflect this precision.
When she isn’t ensuring we create top notch drawings, she enjoys fetch with her dog, Bear, and DIYing the perfect home with her husband.
Since Shari was a child, arranging pinecone décor in her South Lake Tahoe home, she has gravitated towards design and its potential to create positive experiences for the people who use them. She is currently studying to become a licensed interior designer, and is expanding her commercial experience with OneStudio D+A. Her contributions to our team stem from her past experience creating renderings and documents for senior living communities and custom homes at Lake Tahoe. Shari is an attentive listener, as well as an eager learner. When she is not at the office, she is making music or enjoying the lake, whether with her dogs or snowboarding.
Makenzie’s passion for shaping our built environment in a sustainable way fuels her enthusiasm for a career in architecture. While her first love was ceramics, she sees architecture as an extension of that passion, allowing her to mold the spaces and places where people live, work, and play, on a much grander scale. Growing up in the breathtaking natural landscape of South Lake Tahoe undeniably shaped her values of sustainability. Now, back in the Tahoe Basin, Makenzie continues to embrace the outdoors with her best canine companion, Ghost, enjoying adventures like mountain biking, whitewater kayaking, rock climbing, and skiing.
Managing some of our most challenging inner-office requests, tackling paperwork mountains, and taking on special projects, all with a smile on her face, is a piece of cake for Emilie. Raising 4 boys, Emilie’s compassion, patience, and thoughtfulness are a marvel. Office tasks are easy compared to her home life! She is serious and efficient, kind and compassionate, and loves a good joke.
