About
Us

We founded the firm in 2016 determined to align ourselves with an exceptional, dynamic group of interior architectural lines. 

The mission of MAXIMUS is to present cutting edge and award winning architectural solutions to those architects and designers who plan facilities for corporations, hospitality, healthcare, and higher education. 

Our experience spans thirty-one years and we look forward to assisting those design professionals in the creation of innovative interiors that are tasteful, functional and above all, exceptional.

Managing Member

I launched MAXIMUS in December 2016. We represent an exceptional group of dynamic, sophisticated architectural specialties.

My entire career has been spent in the A/D world and we have longstanding relationships with architects and interior designers throughout Alabama. We are active in the AIA, CSI, IIDA and IFMA chapters across the state. Consequently, much of our work is in the construction industry and we maintain relationships with many General Contractors, glaziers, and specialty subcontractors statewide.
