As a child growing up in Haiti, Herby had a unique perspective of seeing his parents build family homes from the ground up. But something inside him was stirred of someday designing a home based on his own ideas!

The dream of Architecture took shape first with his bachelor’s degree at the University of Buffalo and then further at Parsons School of Design. As his career progressed, he could see more and more how useful it is to be able to present design ideas with 3D modeling and renderings. Herby now leverages his 3D expertise for ENV helping our clients fully visualize how their spaces will look when complete!

When Herby isn’t making magic in front of a computer, you most certainly will find him behind a camera at every opportunity! He loves being able to freeze time in a photo and notice details otherwise easily missed in a fleeting moment. His favorite camera to shoot with is a Fuji XT2 with 56 mm lens. Herby is also an accomplished runner having completed 3 full and about a dozen half marathons. He still hopes to design and build a home he can settle down in for the rest of his life, someday.

Janice’s passion for architecture was sparked by her unique experiences growing up in New York City. Some of her earliest memories include her grandmother’s tenement apartment building, where there was a bathtub in the middle of the kitchen. She also remembers visiting her mother who worked at the world financial center, passing through the winter garden and world trade center.

The pure height and volume of it really stuck with her, and to this day, she still likes to think about the variety of scale that exists for buildings in the city. Her curiosity in architecture led to taking design classes on the weekends as a high school student, and then to pursuing architecture in college.

Janice graduated from The Cooper Union with a Bachelor of Architecture and is a licensed architect, AIA, NCARB. She likes the collaborative nature of the ENV office, that creative ideas can be openly shared and discussed amongst the staff.
