He fosters the integration of input from communities, governments, designers, engineers, scientists, and other collaborators to create enduring public spaces that ignite social engagement and enliven living and cultural systems.

The program recognizes "outstanding projects showcase the highest level of expertise and commitment to careful preservation methods while serving as strong testaments to the efficacy of grassroots efforts, and public and private partnerships." OLIN was the lead landscape architect on the renovation, which included both the exterior campus landscape and interior plantings, in collaboration with lead project architect Mills + Schnoering Architects and a diverse, multi-disciplinary team.
