Background
Blake's thorough understanding of the complexities working with large, diverse teams guides his development of suitable structural systems. Blake’s solutions balance the project’s functional and aesthetic requirements with the fundamental structural demands, understanding that success must be all-inclusive. A Michigan native, he has an intimate understanding of the automotive industry, working on many different production facilities during his tenure at Albert Kahn. More recently he has applied his expertise on other kinds of manufacturing including prefabricated structural elements and a new kind of baggage handling system currently being implemented at SFO. Now a Californian, he has come to enjoy the lack of snow to shovel in winter, instead tackling it on skis up in Tahoe.
