Colin first came to Hoerr Schaudt as a summer intern, working towards his master’s degree in landscape architecture. After graduating from Ohio State University, he returned to our Chicago office as a designer. Colin has always taken interest in the public realm but ultimately chose to pursue a career as a landscape architect, designing spaces rather than pushing policy. His passion for research and learning new things coupled with foundational experience in urban planning guides him in “big-picture” planning and detail-oriented design of spaces.

Outside of the office, Colin enjoys bouncing around different Chicago neighborhoods, checking out restaurants (especially ramen shops), and taking in the views along the lakeshore. He is also an avid cyclist, baker, and lover of board games.
