mentorship


While studying at Waterloo Architecture (Cambridge, ON) Alex met architect Rolf Seifert, who had recently relocated from Graz, Austria.


Alex soon joined Seifert's new startup in Toronto, first taking on the transformation of a block of industrial buildings in Liberty Village, and then winning numerous commercial, residential, and mixed-use projects at all scales.

Alex's role evolved as the practice grew to a 6+ person team handling multiple projects. The mentorship continued until Rolf's unexpected passing in late 2019.


Alex is now based on the west coast and works as an independent consultant.
