Barry Seiler joined John Milner Architects in 2007 as Project Architect. He holds degrees in Architecture from University of North Carolina and Polymer Science from the Pennsylvania State University. He entered the building industry as a production chemist, followed by pursuing a parallel tract of architectural training and apprenticeship in the cabinetmaking trade. 12 years of professional woodworking culminated in ownership and management of a custom furniture studio, specializing in restoration of antiques and fabricating timber-framed structures. Barry joined the firm after managing projects for a leading preservation architect in the southeast region, and his technical training and broad experience have informed preservation work on many nationally significant historic buildings. During his free time, Barry can often be found wondering the Susquehanna River gorge, exercising his passion for nature photography, or photo-documenting explorations of ancient ruins, colonial centers, and natural wonders of Old Mexico.
