Mike Benkert, AIA

---

My name is Mike Benkert, and I am a Licensed Architect based in Cincinnati, Ohio. My passion for designing, developing and building Infill Homes began back in 2004 when first stepping foot on a construction site as a Humanity Volunteer, and has continued in professional roles ranging from architect, to developer, to construction manager, and green building consultant.
