Allen Mask was born and raised in St. Louis, where he developed a passion for design and problem-solving. He graduated from Ranken Technical College in May 2024 with a Bachelor of Science in Architectural Technology. During his studies, he focused on designing and rendering unique architectural concepts, exploring ways to make them both functional and visually compelling.
At six years old, Allen taught himself how to swim, proving early on that he enjoys a good challenge (though competitive swimming never made it onto his resume). In high school, he tried his hand at wrestling as a freshman and basketball as a sophomore, but eventually decided that lifting weights and playing pickup games were more his style.
Allen joined Counsilman-Hunsaker in May 2024 as a Project Architect, where he's looking forward to sharpening his technical skills and bringing aquatic projects to life through design and construction drawings. Looking ahead, Allen plans to become a licensed architect and continue refining his skills in architectural design, with the goal of creating structures that are both innovative and practical.
