Morgan Embt
Morgan Embt’s path into architecture began early, driven by a natural inclination to build and create. Educated at Ohio State University, with additional graduate studies at the University of Michigan, she has built her career around prioritizing real-world execution and tangible impact.
Her long-standing professional relationship with the firm’s founder, Daniel Mayer, evolved from mentorship into partnership. She joined the firm in April 2021 as a Senior Associate and became a Partner in 2024. Now based in Chicago, Morgan is a registered architect deeply engaged in community work, supporting small businesses and advocating for broader access to architecture through organizations such as the National Organization of Minority Architects.
