Our Team
A project is bigger than any one person. Our fantastic team was built to help your vision shine through every step of the way.
Eric is founder and principal of Signal Works, an Olneyville based architecture firm committed to transforming broken buildings into meaningful places. He also leads Wide Plank, LLC, a real estate redevelopment and management group that repositions buildings to meet changing community and market needs. When he’s not working on making cities better places, or leading teams that create beauty out of brokenness, he can be often be found hiking in the White Mountains or trail running in Roger Williams Park. He lives with his wife, Melanie, and two young children in the Edgewood section of Cranston, Rhode Island. Meet Eric on our Blog…
