Ryan Call
AIA, Director of Urban Design, Associate Principal
A love for the life of cities and a desire to enliven the suburbs brought me to ELS over sixteen years ago where I found those shared passions in abundance. I feel fortunate to be part of a dynamic profession driven by a greater purpose to create places that make a difference.
