Maggie Martin, Associate AIA, joined Chu-Gooding as a Junior Associate in 2023 and has led and contributed to multiple residential and institutional projects, including an Eaton Fire rebuild project in Altadena, a full-scale home renovation in the Hollywood Hills, and a kitchen renovation at the Hillel Jewish Center on the USC campus.

Maggie holds a Bachelor of Arts in Architecture from UNC Charlotte and a Master of Architecture from Rice University, where she was awarded the Tau Sigma Delta Prize. While at Rice, she received the Margaret Everson Fossi Scholarship twice for studio projects and was awarded the Morris R. Pitman Traveling Fellowship, which supported her thesis research on the Hoover Dam. She also served as a journal editor for Plat 11, the School of Architecture’s student-run publication.

Maggie’s interest in education began during her undergraduate studies at UNC Charlotte, where she worked with the school’s summer architecture camps. After graduate school, she returned to Rice as a studio consultant for first-year students. Now based in Los Angeles, she remains involved in architectural education through local community programs. When she’s not working, Maggie can usually be found swimming, surfing, or attending one of the three book clubs she participates in each month.
