About Mike Benkert
My name is Mike Benkert and I am a registered architect based in Cincinnati, Ohio. I am a 2010 graduate of the University of Cincinnati's Master of Architecture program with experience working on a variety of residential and commercial projects in roles ranging from designer, to developer, to construction manager, and environmental consultant. Outside of work I enjoy running, tennis, drawing, playing piano, and spending quality time with my wife, Jenny.
