What does healing look like when design is rooted in community identity? That question was at the heart of our panel at last week's AMFP NorCal Behavioral Health Symposium.

Lionakis and its project team partners, RSR Construction Advisors and Boyer Construction, presented a progressive design-build case study on Mathiesen Memorial Health — a behavioral health project in Jamestown, CA that explores how tribal community design principles can drive real impact in rural areas. The conversation centered on something we believe deeply: that great healthcare design starts with listening.

Thank you to AMFP NorCal for creating space for these conversations. Proud to be doing this work alongside partners who share the same commitment to community.

Happy 15th anniversary to Jonathan Nep, IT System Specialist / Accounting Specialist!

Jonathan has been a valued part of the Lionakis team for 15 years, serving in both our accounting and IT departments. In his own words:
"15 years in, and things have only gotten better. I stay with Lionakis because they genuinely walk the talk — whether that's supporting work-life balance, offering real flexibility, or leadership that actually listens and acts on employee feedback. This is a place that continues to evolve, and it's been rewarding to grow alongside it."

We're grateful for everything Jonathan brings to our team. Congrats on 15 years! 🎉

Happy 15th anniversary to Carole Wenell, Senior Associate / Marketing Director!

Carole joined Lionakis as a Marketing Coordinator and has grown into an essential part of our team. In her own words:
"15 years flew by! When I started as a Marketing Coordinator, I never could have imagined the journey it's been. I've stayed for two reasons: the opportunity to grow and the ability to do impactful work alongside people I genuinely enjoy. After all this time, there's no feeling like working hand in hand with a project team that is truly invested in winning: building a strategy, firing ideas back and forth, crafting and honing the message. That energy is infectious, and even better when it results in a win."

Thank you for everything you do, Carole! Cheers to 15 years and many more to come! 🎉
