Talyn Kaskel, Project Manager

Talyn’s love of architecture was proven early in life. While most children were playing Sims in order to create the different characters and their families, Talyn focused on designing and building the residential properties the Sims’ families would move into. By the time she reached her junior year in high school, Talyn had her first architecture internship where she was responsible for the cutting and creation of the firms' 3D architectural models used for client presentation and planning meetings. Talyn continued to study architecture at the University of Illinois and graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Architectural Studies and a minor in Urban Planning. Before coming to us, Talyn worked at a design-build firm which further fostered her love for residential architecture and design. Having recently received her LEED Green Associate, she is excited to implement what she has learned through sustainable building practices. When it comes to architectural projects, Talyn strives to create a relationship between nature and the space, shapes, and structures surrounding our everyday lives in ways which make the ordinary, extraordinary. 

Since moving to Seattle from Chicago, Talyn has enjoyed spending her free hours exploring Washington’s scenery while hiking and camping with her dog Roux. On nice days you can find them paddle boarding or picnicking at Green Lake.
