Our Team
Ron Dick, AIA, LEED AP
Partner Emeritus, Senior Architect,
“Start with a big idea, then roll up your sleeves and make it real.”
Ron has been part of Design Collaborative since the very beginning, helping shape not just the work, but the spirit of the firm itself. What started as a shared vision has grown into something much bigger, rooted in collaboration, trust, and a belief that great design happens when people come together around a common goal.
He’s a big-picture thinker who isn’t afraid to jump into the details, often found sketching through ideas, asking thoughtful questions, and helping teams see what’s possible. Ron has a natural ability to bring people along, building consensus, forming genuine relationships, and creating an environment where both clients and teammates feel heard, valued, and inspired. Known for his humility and easygoing nature, Ron is someone people gravitate toward. He’s a mentor, a sounding board, and a steady presence, always ready to think big, and help turn ideas into reality.
