Designer (he/him)

Darrick originally started at Holst as an intern while pursuing his master’s in architecture at Portland State University. After his internship, he joined Holst full-time as a Designer. He is a dedicated designer and has been an integral part of the team for several impactful, affordable housing projects.

Born and raised in Portland, Darrick has witnessed the negative impact that gentrification has had on the working-class and poor neighborhoods in which he was raised. His goal is to make his community proud with his positive impact in the affordable housing sector, and projects like the Aurora, Glisan Landing Aldea, and Strong Family Housing aid in achieving this goal.

Most recently, Darrick has been working on Related Northwest’s Hillside Phase II in Milwaukie, Oregon. The project will increase access to affordable housing in the area by providing 165 new units and an array of amenities.
