'Every workplace has a story to tell'

“I’ve always looked for ways to actively communicate and stay connected to people, both personally and professionally. This quality, combined with my admiration for architecture and all forms of design naturally led me to my current field, and the opportunity to apply my professional skills at M Moser is the ideal situation,” says Katherine Cusack.

“Whenever you walk into a new space, you’re affected by that space. There is always some element that provokes a reaction or an impression, and each place has a story.”

M Moser New York’s new Business Development Manager began her career as a marketing assistant at an engineering firm, and subsequently branched out into the communications profession working for the Office of Child Advocacy at Children’s Hospital Boston. “I realised at that point how much I enjoyed communicating with people – taking the pictures and writing the stories. It was also during my time in Boston that I became more and more interested in the built environment around me,” she recalls.

By 2006, Katherine had bolstered her capabilities with a certificate in Digital Graphic Design from the New England Institute of Art. Prior to joining M Moser’s team in New York, she worked as Marketing Coordinator for a high-profile architecture firm, coordinating and managing activities ranging from proposal development to all facets of public relations.

At M Moser, Katherine will focus her skills on understanding and responding to client needs, accurately relating them to design solutions, and fostering a wider awareness of the firm’s professional capabilities within the integrated project delivery (IPD) model. “Being a member of a global team that works to meet the needs of global clients is extremely important to me. Knowledge from every office and every person in this company goes on to be shared around the world, helping us to continuously improve the services and solutions we offer, and to further develop our own expertise,” she says. “It’s exactly the team I want to be playing on.”

Says David Weinberg, Director, Head of Office, M Moser New York: “Katherine’s talent, experience and engaging personality seem almost tailor-made for her role here at M Moser. Her contributions as Business Development Manager will be essential in building our relationships with clients and prospective clients – to bringing the team and the client onto the same page.”
