We love an opportunity to brag about our incredible leadership, but this announcement might be one of the best ones yet. Drumroll, please … Chris Hite, our president and CEO, was recently elevated to the American Society of Landscape Architects 2021 Council of Fellows—one of only 35 professionals nationwide to receive this honor. 

From co-founding and leading our firm, to working on high-profile projects like the PULSE Interim memorial, Chris’s career has been nothing short of brilliant.

“This elevation to the ASLA Council of Fellows is an enormous testament to everyone who has supported me throughout my career,” said Chris. “It is an incredible privilege to be recognized alongside such an inspirational group of outstanding landscape architecture professionals and I am eternally grateful for this honor.”

We sat down with Chris to chat about this prestigious honor, what it means to her and what she looks forward to in the future. Check it out below!
