Tonya has been working in the architecture field in various capacities since 2009. Before joining PWWG, she worked at Morris Adjmi Architect in New York City for 3 years on a variety of high-end residential and hospitality projects. Here she worked to approve a project through NYC Landmarks and Preservation Board, and conducted construction administration on a project requiring some of the strictest preservation standards in the city. Before that she worked at Massaro Corporation in Pittsburgh in their Design-Build Department. Here she worked on a range of architectural projects, and acted as Sustainability Coordinator for the Corporation, providing support for LEED jobs, and hosting Continuing Education courses. Tonya has also worked in the non-profit sector at Braddock Redux, most notably managing the design and installation of a Green Roof garden, and acting as owners rep. for the Nyia Paige Community Center.

Outside of work at PWWG, Tonya is on the board of the community development non-profit, Braddock Redux. Here she is leading the effort to renovate the historic Nyia Paige Braddock Community Center, as well as working with various community center tenants.
