DIGroup Architecture Names Two New Associates to Leadership Team
DIGroup Architecture has announced the appointment of Kate Haas and Debbie Koehler to the role of associate in a move that deepens the firm’s leadership team and reflects its continued growth and empowerment of women. The appointment of Haas and Koehler also marks the firm’s newest class of associates and the first non-architects to achieve this designation, demonstrating DIG’s commitment to promoting from within.
Driven by an Architecture for Change mission, DIG delivers world-class designs to underserved and under-represented communities in which its projects are located. At DIG, which embraces the diversity of its own talent base, women account for 51% of the staff. The elevation of Haas and Koehler as associates brings female leadership representation to four at the associate level in addition to Swarupa Samant – the firm’s first woman of color at the principal level.
