Sophia Rodriguez, AIA
Project Manager
Sophia approaches architecture the way she approaches everything — with curiosity, creativity, and a genuine investment in the people around her. As a well-rounded architect, project manager, and colleague, she brings a range of skills to Architecture 101 that extends well beyond any single role or title. Whether she is working through a complex design challenge, coordinating across disciplines, or simply showing up for a teammate who needs support, Sophia meets every situation with enthusiasm and an open mind.What makes Sophia particularly valuable is her instinct for creative problem solving. She doesn't settle for the obvious answer — she looks for the holistic one. The solution that not only works, but makes everyone's process a little smoother, a little clearer, and a little less stressful in the process. That mindset, combined with her ability to synthesize diverse perspectives and bring people together around a shared vision, makes her an indispensable presence in any multidisciplinary environment. Sophia is a vocal and compassionate advocate for mental health — in the workplace and beyond. She understands that great work comes from people who feel supported, seen, and valued.What's your go-to order at a local restaurant?
