- Arrin Holt
Arrin Holt is a former Marine Corps Sergeant who commands great respect in the architectural trenches. Arrin is the guy who marshals the troops who gets the drawings done; makes sure that they are drawn on time and correctly, and takes care that his team is treated fairly and with respect throughout the process. Arrin's goal is to make sure that CRSA's projects have as much integrity in their final implementation as they do in their conceptual design. In the best ways, Arrin protects CRSA's clients, CRSA the firm, and CRSA the people.

Laura Hanson is a Certified Planner who has managed several significant planning projects in Utah and Idaho, and has worked on dozens more across the nation over the past decade. Laura's focus is community planning, and her fascination is helping elected officials and citizen committees create policies that will guide future generations of community leaders.

This skill was honed by her past work with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) which required coordinating input from the public and multiple agencies on controversial projects.

David Scott's 12 years of experience in the building industry, prior to his architectural career, enables him to find inventive solutions to problems from design through construction. Understanding the intricacies of construction and construct-ability issues help to make construction documents easy to understand and to build. His conflict resolution and mediation skills and his creativity at solving complex problems create smooth running projects. David is knowledgeable but not officious, and good-natured but not a push-over. Most importantly, he is enormously competent. That is why he is in charge of quality control.
