Jordan Mansky
Director In Training
Jordan Mansky is working his way up to the architectural big leagues with plenty of happy family’s living in houses drafted by his keystrokes and many more to come. He joined ABTAM in 2018 in hopes of making more ties in the industry and gaining more perspective outside of the modest firm from which he operates, pending certification, he volunteered for joining the board in 2019. Graduating in 2016 with a CAD technician degree from MITT and over 5 years of experience working with builders to produce working drawings, his career is not as long as some others but he is committed to this organization and it’s community of hard working professionals.
