Justin Curtis
Structural Designer/ Engineer in Training



Justin graduated from the University of California Davis with a degree in Mechanical Engineering and Materials Science in 2001. After several years working in the tech industry in the Bay Area, the lure of the mountains drew him to Tahoe and a job as a ski lift mechanic at Alpine Meadows. Two years of climbing lift towers and rebuilding grip assemblies was enough, and he shifted his career into the field of Structural Design and Civil Engineering in the greater Lake Tahoe Basin. Justin has over 13 years experience in residential and commercial construction, remodels, additions, repairs, energy analysis and green building. He utilizes his diverse experience and creative approach to bring a pragmatic yet inventive vision to all projects and to the MWA team.


All Staff

The principal architects, Kurt and Kristi, are not only extremely talented in architecture and design, but pay strict attention to what it is that the clients wish in their home or commercial project. So often architects are not adaptable but these folks are.

They also make a genuine effort to stay within budget though that is so difficult to control with costs bouncing all over the place and clients changing their minds during construction.

For character and ability, I whole heartedly recommend MWA.
