“Native design is paramount for honoring the traditional culture of our clients in built form or planning. DMA began with a vision to work with the Native American community. We honor the work we obtain by giving it the best we can and going beyond what is expected of us. My favorite part of the job is creating something out of nothing. Taking an idea or vision our client has and expressing it in a way that is truly unique – that’s the fun part! I blend traditions and modern elements by honoring the basis of cultural ideas, taking a single concept and exploring modern trends like how people interact via technology, communications and general social trends of how space is utilized.”
Dyron offers 30 years of experience working with Native American communities and government agencies across the United States. His portfolio includes education, healthcare, justice and commercial projects that range in scope from basic feasibility studies to new construction of multi-million dollar campuses. Dyron is actively involved in each of DMA’s projects, and works with clients to define and achieve their project goals.
