Dipl. Arch. Tech.

Rachel is an Architectural Technologist at Montgomery Sisam with a strong technical focus and extensive experience in detailing, contract documents, and building code compliance. Her project background spans residential, commercial, retail, and institutional work, providing a well-rounded understanding of diverse building types and delivery requirements.

Since joining Montgomery Sisam in 2025, Rachel has supported project teams through design development and technical documentation. She excels in the technical stages of projects, where precision, rigor, and coordination are essential, and works closely with large multidisciplinary teams to ensure accuracy, consistency, and constructability throughout all phases of project delivery. Highly proficient in Revit, including the development of complex, customized families, Rachel is recognized for producing clear, well-coordinated drawing sets.

Rachel approaches architecture as a problem-solving discipline, with each project presenting a unique combination of site constraints, budgets, codes, and client goals. She thrives on the challenge of balancing creativity with practicality to deliver effective, buildable solutions.

Rachel is drawn to architecture for its potential – across both public and private projects – to shape communities, enhance quality of life, and cultivate a strong sense of place and belonging. With a growing interest in building science, she is particularly engaged by the evolving landscape of materials, technologies, and sustainability strategies, reinforcing her commitment to high-performance, socially and environmentally responsive design.
