Associate, Manager of Information Systems

As our “IT guy,” Brian is in charge of making sure all of our technological gadgets are working properly. If he isn’t around, something is bound to break, crash, freeze, or malfunction in some way or another. When he’s not solving problems around the office, Brian is trying to increase the world’s population of women (he has three daughters) or riding something with two wheels.

Executive Principal

Eric is both our Principal in Charge of Design and our master planning expert. He still prefers his original drawing tools and his colored pencils, and his specialty is creating detailed hand drawings to communicate his vision of a project to the client.

In the 1990s, Mr. deNeve was responsible for developing and maintaining client relationships in ten Asian countries and for the design management of complex international urban mixed-use projects. With his extensive experience in the commercial industry, he has been a speaker at international and domestic conferences and seminars to include the recent Fenalco, Unicentro, Bogotá conference.

He also enjoys gardening, and can’t resist stopping by every landscape nursery he passes to look for unusual plants.

Associate, Director of Marketing

As our Director of Marketing, Kristen spends most of her time talking — either introducing the firm to potential new clients or maintaining relationships with existing ones. Kristen’s house has been under renovation for what seems like forever, and she looks forward to someday being finished with contractors and sheetrock dust. She also has three rescued lab mixes and a weakness for reality TV and shoes.

Office Manager

As our office manager, Nancy has the honor of taking care of all the paperwork that the rest of us don’t want to deal with. Her meticulous nature is evident through her management of the finances, resources, organization, and appearance of DMR. But her attention to detail doesn’t stop there. Often seen purchasing grocery items in groups of 3, this level of particularity means that nothing unsatisfactory gets past Nancy, especially insufficient timesheets.

Administrative Assistant

Rochelle is the friendly face that you’ll see when you walk through the front door of the DMR office (though if she’s not there, she’s probably delivering packages to Travis). She has lived in Los Angeles, New York City, and England, and currently shares her house with her husband and two cats.

Project Manager

Travis is in charge of all our Walgreens projects, though he claims he only works here because the position of head football coach for Virginia Tech was already taken. His desk contains an impressive collection of Hokie paraphernalia, and his brain contains an impressive collection of Seinfeld trivia.
