Every project has multiple stakeholders: the client, the community, project partners, and even Keck & Wood itself. For Tripp, who is a licensed landscape architect in three states, that list also always includes the environment. In designing and managing projects, he strives to benefit all interests ethically and creatively.

“The challenge for me in meeting the client’s needs and desires is to do it in a way that complies with local and state codes, does not harm the environment, and creates a safe, pleasant space that enriches the health and well-being of the public.”

Outside of work, one of Tripp’s favorite things is seeing his daughters smile.
