Rollin Kuhn

Rollin is Walker Macy’s IT Manager, and beyond keeping everyone’s machines up and running, he is essential to helping the firm advance its design practice through new tools and platforms for design. From roots in Indiana to years living in California to his current residence in Portland, Rollin has concluded that humanity needs direct experience with nature to stay healthy as people grow more dependent on technology. “Information Technology is about more than just computers. It’s intimately connected with people, and supporting them in doing their work with as little difficulty as possible. Portland is an amazing place in that it’s a very urban environment that also strives to keep the natural world integrated into its spaces. I’m really impressed with how a city can combine human structures with natural beauty to create fulfilling urban spaces. Working at Walker Macy is a perfect match of using my computer skills to support the amazing work they do in landscape design.”
