The University of Utah School of Architecture is pleased to partner with AIA Utah in welcoming Jonathan Garnett, founder and creative partner at Modellus Novus (MN), as the keynote speaker for the AIA Utah Annual Conference 2025 morning session.

During the morning session, Jonathan Garnett’s keynote will focus on Celebrating Diverse Voices. Jonathan will share insights from his personal and professional journey, influenced by cultural, geographic, and professional experiences that have influenced him.

Jonathan, as a leader at MN, leads creative direction across architecture and design projects while promoting the firm’s principles and priorities. Jonathan’s early work with a nonprofit design-build establishment in Detroit, where he served underrepresented communities and organizations, continues to shape his professional practice and perspective today.

The School of Architecture and AIA Utah invite you to join us for an inspiring session about the evolving role of architects and how we can expand the voices and impact of our profession.
