From Director to Principal Architect. 🎉
We are thrilled to announce the promotion of Michael Wilson! Since joining FPBA in 2013, Mike has been a vital leader in our San Diego office.
His expertise in technical design and core/shell architecture is unmatched, but it is his commitment to mentorship and guiding the next generation of designers that truly defines his impact.
Whether he’s leading a roundtable session or overseeing a ground-up life science campus, Mike embodies the excellence and collaboration at the heart of our ESOP culture.
Congratulations, Mike!

Celebrating #WICWeek2026! 🦺
Yesterday, our team (including our NorCal offices) sat down with FPBA’s new President, Amanda Schultz, and our Executive Vice Presidents Ann Shelton and Stefanie Deal to hear a little more about their career journey in the AEC industry.
Our leadership’s insights are the foundation for the next generation at FPBA. Here’s the advice they shared:
1️⃣ We spend so much of our time at work, don’t forget to have fun along the way.
2️⃣ Stop putting so much pressure on yourself. You’ve earned a seat at the table.
3️⃣ Find a sustainable path that works with your life, not one that leads to burnout.
What an empowering conversation! 🌟
