Jeff Gerwing

Jeff serves as Midwest Region Practice Director, but the early part of his career was grounded in the world of design. He co-founded the firm’s lighting design group, creating a specialty service that has been recognized internationally for making an award-winning mark on a wide range of projects. Although his focus has shifted to serving in a leadership capacity across many aspects of the firm, his love for design still drives his decision making. Jeff uses his role to advance the firm’s mission, which aligns with his own. “I strive for excellence and innovation. I want to see us compete at the highest levels to lead the industry. I really enjoy working with many other talented and passionate staff across our offices who are working to move the firm forward.” Had he not chosen a design career path Jeff would likely be on an archaeological dig somewhere. “I’ve always been fascinated with ancient cultures, especially those that achieved great architectural or engineering feats with the limited technology of their time."
