Green Line welcomes new staff: Jeremy Wussow

Jeremy Wussow

Green Line Architects recently hired long time local Jeremy Wussow as a new architectural staff member.  Wussow is happy to be back, "As long time local residents, my family and I are very excited to reestablish our connection to the Roaring Fork Valley. "

He comes to Green Line with over 13 years of experience with Rudd construction.  The next 4 months of working as an architectural intern will fulfill the requirements for his degree, a Bachelor in Environmental Design at Montana State University in Bozeman.  Once he receives the undergraduate degree, he will begin MSU's intensive one-year (three semester) Master of Architecture degree program, which he hopes to complete by May 2013.  

"I'm looking forward to working at Green Line.  I think it will be a great experience for me," says Wussow.

Chances are, you haven't seen him in a while, so stop by the office and say hi!
