DOMINIQUE CAMPBELL
As a native Washingtonian raised in a family focused on athletics and health, Dominique is no stranger to the healthcare environment. As a young girl, she spent many days in the Washington metropolitan area with family members that worked in a number of hospitals and found comfort in exploring the facilities. This would later bring her to intern as a communication researcher while in high school on cervical and pancreatic cancer, and later she would become an architectural intern at Georgetown University. She knew that she had a passion for design and obtained her Master’s in Fine Arts in Interior Architecture & Design from George Washington University in 2017. When she’s not in the office, Dominique enjoys walks with her dog, scary movies, and spending time at home.
GIWON LEE
Giwon’s father practiced architectural construction and this sparked his own interest in the construction industry. When Giwon made the decision to major in architecture an underlying motivation was his desire to design low income housing. He is currently exploring ways to use his skills to benefit people in developing countries. In his free time, Giwon enjoys watching sports as well as teaching and playing the guitar.

LORI AMBRUSCH
Lori decided in kindergarten that she wanted to be an architect, and started her "training" by building things out of boards she broke in TaeKwonDo. An interest in fabrication still drives Lori’s passion for architecture, always wanting to understand how things will come to life after being manifested on paper. She has experience in a variety of project types, including ADA and USP compliance assessments, healthcare and pharmacy design, and a wide range of government work. Lori earned her Bachelor of Architecture from The Pennsylvania State University, and further pursued her thesis research by earning a Master of Architecture in Urban Design at the Harvard University Graduate School of Design. In her free time, Lori enjoys trying new sports, exploring national parks, spending time experimenting in the kitchen, and working on home renovation projects.”

PATRICK DIGIOVANNI
Patrick entered the architecture profession through a circuitous route. As a child, Patrick’s imagination and gift for drawing caught the eye of his uncle, a practicing Architect, who encouraged him to pursue the profession. Over the years, Patrick’s interests grew to include a tapestry of subjects before finally settling on Biology as his focus during his undergraduate studies. Sensing that his professional path would be outside of the sciences, Patrick reengaged with his artistic abilities, and rediscovered his dormant interest in the architecture. In graduate school he completed an arduous, dual degree program and obtained a Master of Architecture and Master of Sustainable Design. In the professional world, Patrick brings an understanding of project-flow, technical knowledge, and attention to detail to solve design challenges for his clients. Prior to joining LSY Architects, he worked on commercial office spaces, base buildings, and civic buildings. Outside of work Patrick is a history and music enthusiast, who enjoys playing guitar, hiking, and reading about science, science fiction, history, and notable people.

NOOPUR THAKKAR
Growing up in the mega-city of Mumbai, Noopur was surrounded by inspiration and began exploring creative endeavors at the age of five.

HOSSEIN LOGHMAN-ADHAM
Hossein studied architecture at the famed École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, France, where the tenets of correct, moral and ethical architecture were drilled into him until they eventually became part of his DNA. He was taught that architects are not just designers but master builders, as the etymological definition of the term “architect” indicates. He believes, firm adherence to those tenets is vital to every project, whether one is designing and building a resort hotel in Upstate New York, or a laboratory on the NIH Bethesda campus. Hossein strongly believes that society as a whole is experienced and felt most directly within space; he is unequivocally convinced the job of a room, building, neighborhood, village or town, is to enhance the sense of life and wellbeing in those who live, work and play in those spaces.
