About Shakera Kyle

I am an experienced Project Manager who performs effectively at all phases of design and construction administration. With over 10 years of experience, I have seen multiple projects both large and small from design through construction. I am a Syracuse University graduate in the process of obtaining my architectural license.As a design professional, I have had a wide range of experience including commercial workplace interiors, institutional interiors, industrial interiors, hospitality interiors, residential, transportation, space planning, occupancy planning; furniture, website, and graphic design. I previously served on the 2017/2018 executive board of NYCOBA-NOMA, The New York Coalition of Black Architects (NYCOBA) which is the New York chapter of NOMA (The National Organization of Minority Architects).At the age of 17, I was awarded the Baltimore County Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Content of Character Award. I believe no good work starts from a foundation that is false. One really has to be oneself, do work that they are proud of, and then it\'s a win-win situation because a community gets built that thinks similarly and supports each other\'s work.
