Architectural Designer
CICADA Architecture
Quanniesha, “Q,” brings years of experience in architectural design and business and project administration. After developing a thesis focused on the housing crisis in Oakland, CA, and its parallels with the intentional destruction of predominantly black communities, she shifted her design interests to affordable housing and community development.
At CICADA, she assists with projects in all phases of design, ranging from feasibility studies to construction administration. Her experience includes single-family homes, university facilities, and public/community spaces.
Outside the office, you can find Q cooking, practicing yoga, or just being a mom.
