Gene Sandoval

You might say design partner Gene Sandoval has an active imagination. From growing up around a family shipbuilding business to finding early inspiration in sci-fi, the creative spirit was instilled in him from a young age. Gene is grateful and proud to have his roots in Asia, where he nurtured a penchant for unconventional thinking and resourcefulness that he leverages today for designs that creatively balance human and environmental performance. Gene leads design teams for some of the firm’s most complex and ambitious projects, including an expansion at the Nike World Headquarter Campus and doubling the footprint of the beloved Portland International Airport.
