PSW Promotes Associate Principals

Posted January 18, 2024

We have more exciting news to share! Sam Annable, Mandy Breckenridge and Wendell Kinzler have all been promoted to Associate Principals.
Sam Annable is a senior project architect in PSW’s Fayetteville Office. A 2012 Cum Laude graduate of the University of Arkansas Fay Jones School of Architecture, Sam joined PSW following a summer internship with the firm. During his time at the University of Arkansas, Sam served as president of his AIAS Chapter from 2008 to 2010 and was part of a research team that studied and designed Rwandan multi-family housing typologies with Dr. Korydon Smith and Peter Rich, FAIA. His project experience includes Bentonville’s 21c Museum Hotel, the Windgate Galleries for the University of Arkansas, a 169,000 square-foot office building and parking deck in Bentonville, Arkansas, as well as other private mixed-use developments and office buildings in Northwest Arkansas.
Since joining PSW in 2005, Mandy Breckenridge has primarily served as a senior project architect across a variety of Healthcare and Healthcare Education projects including complexly phased Surgical Renovations, state-of-the art Cancer Treatment Centers, fast-tracked freestanding hospitals, and most recently the Alice L. Walton School of Medicine and Arkansas Children’s Northwest addition. With an incredible attention to detail and work ethic to match, Mandy approaches every Healthcare project as an opportunity to synergize highly functional, high performing, practical spaces with a forward-thinking, thoughtful design unique to each client. While her primary role at PSW puts her face-to-face with project management, planning, and production, she maintains a parallel love for teaching others and leads both the PSW BIM studio and Building Code Education efforts for the firm.
An honors graduate from the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville, Wendell Kinzler has nearly twenty years of combined education and experience in the field of architectural design. His passion for creating unique design solutions continues to bring his clients a broad range of innovative approaches to their projects. Wendell’s expertise in Project Management has ranged from 7,100 SF to 200,000 SF facilities. He also has worked on a wide variety of building types, including Arkansas Children’s Clinics in Southwest Little Rock and Pine Bluff, Arkansas, the new Evermore Resort in Orlando, Florida, the Robinson Center Renovation and Expansion, and the current renovation and expansion to Arkansas Children’s Little Rock campus.
