She has helped guide and advise design teams on projects, providing overall design direction to ensure consistency throughout each project. In 2017, Marie was appointed to Associate where she took on a leadership role, promoting the firm’s goals and core values, while continuing to provide mentorship and guidance to peers and her clients alike. As an interior design expert, she has designed more than 1.5 million square feet of corporate commercial office space for law firms, associations and nonprofits, government contractors, and consulting firms, among others.
Several of Marie’s most notable projects include the recently completed office of the Association of International Certified Professional Accountants (AICPA), the largest member association representing the accounting profession located in New York City; ASHP, an association that advocates and supports the professional practice of pharmacists located in Bethesda, Maryland, and the recipient of the NAIOP DC|MD Award of Excellence; MOI, a commercial furniture solutions provider headquartered in Baltimore, Maryland, and the winner of AIA Baltimore’s People’s Choice Award; the Nuclear Energy Institute, a policy organization located in Washington, DC, and the recipient of the IIDA Pinnacle Award, IIDA Gold Award, and the NAIOP Award of Merit; Wilkinson Walsh, a boutique law firm located in Washington, DC, which received an Honorable Mention from the International Design Awards (IDA); and the firm’s own office, which relocated to the West End of Washington, DC, and received an AIA Northern Virginia Design Award, a NAIOP Award of Merit, and a Fitwel 3 Star Rating.
