RIM Architects, LLC recently announced in a press release the promotion of Inna Wiese, AIA, LEED AP BD+C, to principal. She has over 25 years of experience, 18 of which were with RIM on various projects in Guam and Saipan. In her new role, Inna Wiese will lead project planning and design while equipping the next generation of design professionals. “We are honored to have Inna as the new leader of RIM,” said David McVeigh, CEO and President of the company. “She is committed to the Guam community and embodies our culture through unwavering commitment, tireless hard work and outstanding work.” Inna Wiese’s talent and work ethic were recognized early, and her career at RIM saw her rise from intern to company leader. She is a registered architect in Guam and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands and a Certified Professional in Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design, specializing in building design and construction. She is an active member of Guam’s local community and construction industry. She is a past president of the Mariana Chapter of the American Institute of Architects. “Inna’s hard work and active networking have increased the visibility of the AIA on Guam and nationally,” said Brent Wiese, Guam managing principal at RIM Architects and former AIA Mariana Chapter president. “This was crucial in the recent national-level reorganization so that the Mariana Islands could retain its status as a distinct chapter rather than being lumped into one of the states.” Inna Wiese holds a B.A. in Architecture from the Mapua Institute of Technology in the Philippines Bachelor of Science, her father was an architect and she knew from an early age that she wanted to pursue architecture as a career. She realized those early dreams and worked on prestigious and challenging projects, including the award-winning Department of Defense Educational Initiative elementary and middle schools and the Guam Reef Hotel renovation, the company said in a news release. Most recently, Inna Wiese was a key team member on such notable projects as the Personal Finance Center, Pacific Bank Renovation and the Tsubaki Tower in Tumon.
“I’ve been a creative person for as long as I can remember,” says Inna Wiese. “I began to love math and science and was drawn to culture and society. Although my parents were concerned that architecture could be challenging, I pursued this career to make a positive impact. Just as my mentors had done for me, I strive to inspire, support and advocate for ways for emerging professionals to discover, grow and become leaders in architecture and its communities,” said Inna Wiese.
Inna Wiese is widely respected in the Guam community as a strong collaborator and consensus builder, according to the release. She currently serves on the board of directors of AIA Marianas and is involved in several associations, including the Guam Chamber of Commerce and the Guam Postal Association of the American Society of Military Engineers.
