Celebrating Promotions & Professional Development— NEWS

Celebrating Promotions Blog

Professional development at Nacht & Lewis is not defined by a single milestone. It is an ongoing journey shaped by mentorship, real project experience, and a culture that encourages learning at every stage of a career. From early-career professionals to seasoned team members, growth is supported through opportunities to build skills, take on responsibility, and learn directly from those around you.

We are proud to recognize several team members who have recently been promoted at Nacht & Lewis.

Chris Flatt – Practice Leader

Luke Abbott – Senior Design Technician II

Jade Rosario – Design Technician

Kaeli Asche – Senior Marketing Coordinator

Mentorship and professional development are central to our team’s growth. Team members benefit from a combination of workplace training and continuing education, with support that makes it possible to learn while working. Flexible schedules, technology support, and guidance from experienced colleagues help individuals build skills, gain confidence, and succeed in their roles.

That support is paired with hands-on project experience. Team members are trusted to step into new challenges, even when tasks go beyond their current experience. Whether it is developing technical drawing skills, supporting construction administration, or managing increasingly complex responsibilities, this trust allows individuals to grow through experience.

Beyond a change in title, these promotions reflect our firm’s recognition of both progress and potential. They represent the next step in a career journey, providing a platform to both grow personally and support the development of others. Promotions offer a moment to look back on how far someone has come while also providing encouragement to continue learning.

Growth takes time. Skills and confidence develop through curiosity, continued education, and a willingness to ask for help. Our team members emphasize the importance of staying open to learning, seeking mentorship, and embracing new challenges while navigating your own personal professional development.

Professional development and promotions reflect the broader culture at Nacht & Lewis. By combining mentorship, hands-on experience, and encouragement to grow, our firm creates space for meaningful career development.
