Peggy brings over twenty years of historic preservation experience in both the private and public sectors. She worked for almost ten years in a historic preservation architecture firm in the Chicago area, has worked independently as a historic preservation consultant, and administered the National Register of Historic Places Program in Wisconsin for eight years. Her portfolio of projects includes architectural survey and documentation, historic district design guidelines, context statements, historic building preservation plans, historic structures reports, National Register nominations, and HABS documentation. She exceeds the professional qualifications standards in the Code of Federal Regulations, 36 CFR 61, Appendix A, Department of the Interior for Architectural History, and History. Peggy has made presentations at statewide preservation conferences in both Illinois and Wisconsin and has made over sixty presentations about the National Register of Historic Paces Program. She was co-presenter to historic preservation and landscape architect professionals about a National Park Service project that drew on the strengths of the National Register program to advance the Historic American Landscape Survey (HALS)-short form initiative. Peggy has seen the transformative effect that building restoration and historic preservation investment can have in communities. Historic places anchor us to our heritage and simultaneously serve as an economic engine that drives a vibrant future through community reinvestment.

Peggy holds a Master of Historic Preservation degree from the University of Georgia and a Bachelor of Arts degree in History from Kent State University. She has served on the board of a small house museum and currently is a member of her community’s Landmarks Commission
