Bria Johnson has diverse project experience, including hospitality, multi-family, education, retail, corporate, and worship projects. A previous engagement as an in-house designer for a corporate retail entity gave her an immersive experience and appreciation of the owner’s concerns for efficiency, cost, and regulatory compliance. With experience from design through construction administration, she helps drive projects forward.

She is a continual learner who enjoys technology and research and exploring their applications to design. Understanding the impact design can have on people’s lives is what drew Bria to the architectural profession, and she’s found a home at Manning where our passion is to improve the quality of life through collaboration and design.

Bria’s efficiency at work is balanced by weekends spent visiting farmer’s markets or museums in her D.C. hometown or designing virtual spaces online.
