Nadel Architects has promoted Mark B. Mikelson, AIA, LEED AP senior vice president to director of the firm’s retail division. Mikelson, who has over 27 years of experience in retail development and is a licensed architect in Nevada, Arizona and California, will head the division out of the Nevada office, where he previously served as managing principal.
In his new position, Mikelson’s responsibilities will include providing a unified vision for the retail division, standardizing how the firm conducts its practice for retail projects and offering guidance to the various Nadel offices as a mentor for the retail principals.
Mikelson will be taking over the position of retail division director from Jerry Kramer, who joined Nadel Architects in 1976 and launched the retail division in the Los Angeles office. Kramer will be retiring this October following a 36-year tenure with Nadel Architects.
Mikelson is currently serving his third and final term as ICSC Retail Chair for Nevada. He is also actively involved in the Southern Nevada chapter of the National Association of Industrial and Office Properties (NAIOP) and is a member of the American Institute of Architects (AIA). In addition, Mikelson is a LEED® Accredited Professional and is also registered with the National Council of Architectural Registration Boards (NCARB).
The Nadel retail division is responsible for over 600 shopping centers, representing more than 30 million square feet of retail and entertainment destinations throughout the western regions of the United States and abroad.
