Jerald became the first hired hand at Archimage back in 1984 when, as a young architecture student,
he was looking for some real world experience. Richard was 30 minutes late for the interview. Welcome
to the real world.
Six years, a college degree, and a professional license later, Jerald
became a Principal and Vice President of Archimage. Jerald had always looked a bit young for his age,
so he decided to grow a beard. Clients stopped asking if his father was home.
Jerald graduated from the Gerald D. Hines College of Architecture at the University of Houston as
Valedictorian in 1986. In 1995, he was selected as one of 50 outstanding graduates and inducted into the
college's Hall of Fame as an inaugural member. Jerald returned to teach several courses at the school,
including computer animation and computer-aided design. He recently served as Advisory Board Chairman for the
School of Visual Communications at the AIU Houston campus.
Jerald and his wife Shelli were married during his college years. They have three children. Until his
son Adam was born, he spent all of his free time playing with his daughters Natalie and Erica.
Together they shared a fantasy world filled with Barbie dolls, stuffed animals, and pretend kitchens. Today
he is still recovering, but enjoys more manly activities like rock climbing, biking, hiking, and other "guy stuff".
