“I look forward to what the next few years hold
for the National Capital Chapter of CMAA. As we look at the architect engineer
construction (AEC) space, construction managers play a vital role in delivering
high-quality projects on time and under budget, which is critical to the
success of our clients,” says Holland. “As I step into this new role, I thank
Cindy Quiroz, our immediate past president, for the passion, dedication, and
integrity she displayed.”
