Emerging Professional
Ariel Beckstrom
Associate AIA
Ariel first joined RTA as a student intern and transitioned to full-time at the completion of her Master of Architecture from the University of Colorado Denver in May 2022. Her passion for architecture lies in its connection to puzzles. Buildings start as a series of pieces: a mound of dirt combined with wood, bricks, glass, steel, concrete, and/or stone. But when the pieces are assembled, what is created is more than its individual components. Ariel has a knack for solving problems both analytically and creatively and most enjoys projects that allow her to utilize both mindsets to create effective solutions.
