A New Chapter for Cawley Architects!
We’re excited to announce two important leadership promotions at Cawley Architects: Lynette Dreitz Fort has been named Chief Executive Officer, and Rafael Macias has been named President.
Both Lynette and Rafael have been longtime leaders at Cawley, bringing decades of combined experience and a deep commitment to our people, our clients and the work we do.
Lynette has helped guide Cawley’s financial and operational growth for the past 13 years, while Rafael brings 46 years of architectural and project leadership experience—including 12 years with Cawley.
Their leadership marks an exciting next chapter for a firm that has been part of the Phoenix community for more than 32 years, completing 1,000+ projects and more than 25 million square feet of work across five states.
We’re proud to have Lynette and Rafael at the helm and look forward to all that’s ahead.
Congratulations, Lynette and Rafael!
