Brent Gundersen

Our Principal, Ariel Aufgang, began working for the firm in 1998, when he was still in college. After working his way up to Principal, he maintained the policy of welcoming students to the firm for skill building and practical hands-on education. This summer, Aufgang’s interns are gaining experience by working on our customers’ projects. In this blog series, we highlight each of our interns, get to know them, and cheer them on as they grow in their respective fields.

Brent Gundersen is part of the class of 2027 at Penn State, studying Architecture. His father works in Suffern near our office and encouraged Brent to reach out to us for internship opportunities.

Currently, Brent is learning about code as he is designing ADA accessible floor plans for apartments. He has previous experience with AutoCAD and is now learning how to use Revit. Designing new and exciting spaces inspires Brent’s creativity. He especially enjoys experimenting and pushing design forward to create spaces that are inviting for people to enter and thrive in.

Brent wants to become a licensed architect in the future. He enjoys the variety of experiences at Aufgang and wants to experiment more to find a specialty.
