Welcome Our New Team Members
Our talented interior design team is growing! LEVY DYKEMA is excited to welcome two new interior designers - Christina Glenn and Erica Yanez.
Christina Glenn is an Austin native with a passion for commercial interiors. She graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Interior Design from the University of Texas at San Antonio. With 8+ years of experience in Multi-Family and Hospitality design, she brings creativity and fresh perspective to the team. Gaining inspiration from her travels and explorations, she enjoys implementing a variety of design styles, finish palettes and custom details.
Erica Yanez brings passion and creativity to each design project she works on. A graduate of Texas State University, Erica has more than 4 years of experience in corporate design. Whether she is designing for a small residence or a grand hotel, Erica’s goal is to create a space that evokes emotion and represents her client’s personality and vision. She utilizes research and critical thinking to work through design challenges and exceed project expectations.
Community Connections
An integral part of the Texas Contemporary™ experience is our connection to the community. Our firm plays an active role in where we work, live, and play. Every LEVY DYKEMA team member is required to dedicate several hours per month to volunteer with organizations in the community.
Leading the way in the Coastal Bend region! LEVY DYKEMA is proud to support the Coastal Bend community as a long-standing sponsor of the February 24th Charity League of Corpus Christi Annual Style Show & Luncheon. LEVY DYKEMA Principal, Biby Dykema, has advocated and led this community endeavor for many years.
Organized in 1934, by a group of women dedicated to improving the community, the Charity League non-profit entity is comprised of 40 women who annually raise funds for charitable projects with 100% of every dollar raised donated to a selected 501(c) (3) organization. The Charity League has raised over 5.5 million dollars for these organizations in the Coastal Bend area thanks to the generous support of foundations, businesses, and individual donors.
A Culture of Leadership
A message from our President, Stephen V. Levy
With every project assignment comes a range of tangible and intangible challenges and opportunities.
What is the architectural solution to the vision set forth by our client? How will our brand of Texas Contemporary™ architecture stimulate timeless creative design, aesthetic values, functionality, and budget optimization? Who will lead and motivate the team to greatness?
This is where the LEVY DYKEMA culture of leadership shines.
The experience and talents of our team are extraordinary — John Dykema, Biby Dykema, Jill Pierce, Ryan Begley, Debbie Norvell, Robert Garcia, Mauricio Feldsberg, and we are proud to have recently announced the promotion of Luis Durón to Principal at LEVY DYKEMA.
I am proud to share the leadership role with the best team of professionals I have had the pleasure to work with.
LEVY DYKEMA is proud of our leadership team. Bright, bold, proud and committed to our industry, clients, and community.
Stephen V. Levy
