A young, award-winning designer, Manan rounds out SKA’s management team providing the firm his design and technological expertise. He started his career when he was 12, running prints for a firm in San Francisco. His enthusiasm for the job led him to earn a B.A. in Architecture from UC Berkeley. After receiving his Master of Architecture from MIT, Manan worked for a firm in New York where he gained valuable detailing and sustainable design experience. His most notable project to date is the renovation of Frank Lloyd Wright’s Inn at Price Tower.

When Manan isn’t in the office, he can be found on basketball courts throughout San Francisco. He and his wife, Lena, have traveled throughout Thailand, Cambodia, Japan and Europe, and have most recently been exploring North America as they’ve been flying to friends’ weddings in the U.S. and Mexico.
