erica gaswirth AIA, LEEd ap

Director of Education

Since joining the firm in 2000, Erica Gaswirth has focused her career on the design of cultural and educational institutions, from early childhood through higher education, and adaptive reuse to new construction. Project work includes the interior and sustainable design for the LearningSpring School, the design and renovation of two athletic facilities for Riverdale Country School, and a new school for the Cooke School & Institute.  

Erica  believes that architecture should be equitable for all and strives to bring dignified design to special needs students, a population historically marginalized within the larger educational system. Her thoughtful and practical approach to architecture integrates sustainability with innovative designs, which meet functional, performance, and budget requirements.

Ms. Gaswirth received a Master of Architecture and Certificate in Historic Preservation from the University of Maryland, and a Bachelor of Arts from Washington University in St. Louis.   Erica is on the Board of Directors for the Westchester Hudson Valley Chapter of the AIA, and serves on the Building Advisory Committee for the Mamaroneck Union Free School District.
