The Head of BIM in KPF’s New York office, Veronica was interviewed alongside two fellow New Jersey Institute of Technology graduates for an NJIT news piece on women alumnae who are leading a technological evolution in the AEC industry.
The piece explores the guiding principles held and lessons learned by Veronica, class of 2007; as well as Gayatri Desai, class of 2014 and Senior Associate, Director of Design Technology, and Head of BIM at Ennead Architects; and Alexandra Pollock, class of 2003 and Senior Director of CORE Studio at Thornton Tomasetti. In a period of profound transformation for the AEC technology sector, these three women leaders have leveraged their expertise to enhance efficiency, collaboration, and innovation within their firms.
“The industry is heading toward a smarter, more data-driven design, with AI and generative design taking on a bigger role in problem-solving and creating optimized designs. BIM will continue evolving, as it becomes the main tool for design, coordination, and data management,” says Veronica. “We’ll probably see more immersive experiences with VR and AR, making discussions and presentations with clients more interactive. Ultimately, the goal should be to have architects/designers spend less time on repetitive tasks and more time on creative problem-solving and design innovation.”
