McKissack is such an exciting place to work – its people and the team dynamic is truly special. I feel very fortunate to work with such an experienced and diverse team of professionals who are driven by our clients’ missions. As a former K-12 owner, nothing gives me greater joy than being able to help our K-12 clients build amazing schools for their staff and students.
