In My Own Words...
My grandfather, father and
uncle were all master carpenters.
From them I inherited my love
of buildings, but none of their
skill with tools. My construction
career was punctuated with numerous
splinters, contusions, bloodlettings
and even a broken neck. Architectural
office work has proven to be
somewhat safer and much more
satisfying.
I came to architecture via
a back road that included numerous
construction and contracting
jobs, a Liberal Arts degree
from the University of Montana
and six years in Central and
West Africa with the Peace Corps
and the American Friends Service
Committee.
After 8 years of on-again off-again
architectural school at Montana
State University, and several
interesting jobs with regional
firms, Dyron Murphy, Jim Houser
and I teamed to form Dyron Murphy
Architects. It has been a busy
and exciting 7 years since we
prepared our first proposals
on folding chairs and tables
in an otherwise empty office.
Our entire firm shares a vision
of providing top-quality services
to Native people. I cannot imagine
wanting to do anything else.
