CATHERINE QUAN

Born in Montréal to Chinese-Vietnamese parents, Catherine brings a global perspective and a deep appreciation for culture, language, and design. Fluent in Cantonese, French, and English, she blends international experience with a warm, approachable style that resonates across teams and communities.

Catherine earned her architecture degree from McGill University and began her career in 2006 working on healthcare, science, and technology projects in Montréal. Her passion for both the built environment and new experiences led her to pursue a master’s degree at the University of Colorado Denver, where she found a new home—and love for the mountains, skiing, and (relatively) mild winters.

Curious, creative, and always ready for the next adventure, Catherine brings thoughtful design insight and collaborative energy to every project. Whether she’s exploring a new city or trail, it usually involves discovering great food—and maybe even some maple syrup.
