Garrison and Henry join HUNT ownership team; Jones named Associate

HUNT Engineers and Architects has expanded its ownership team, naming as new Principals, Ryan Garrison, their director of Information Technology, and Gary Henry, AIA, a senior architect and project manager.

According to HUNT President Dan Bower, “Beyond their sheer technical competence and leadership, in both Gary and Ryan you see two of the most impressive cutting-edge, design professionals in the region. In just the last quarter, Ryan has led educational and municipal security projects, as well as ‘dark fiber optic’ initiatives. Gary came to us several years ago with Cornell University project management experience, and he has been a stellar performer from the outset.”

Garrison has been credited with establishing some of the first New York State Smart Schools projects, and for his part, Henry recently added an award-winning roof project at the historic, Bradford County Pennsylvania courthouse to his reputation as a building code expert.

A LeMoyne College graduate, Garrison and his wife, Tie, are Corning residents.

Henry, his wife, Deborah, and their children live in Candor N.Y. Gary holds an architecture degree from Kent State University.

In the past, Henry has served on the Town of Candor Planning Board, the Tioga County Planning Board, and the Candor School Board. Henry has also worked with several school districts on their capital projects to include Tioga Central School District, Dryden Central School District, Candor Central School District, Moravia Central School District, and many others across New York, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey.

Gary Henry is the son of Carol and Gary Henry Sr. 

In related news, HUNT also announced the promotion of Mike Jones, AIA to an Associate level post. 

Jones has managed clients including Northern Tioga School District, Prattsburgh Central School District, Alfred-Almond Central School District, Elk Lake School District, Sullivan County School District, and several Bradford County projects. In 2013, Mike transferred to HUNT’s Towanda, Pa. office, and he resides in Elmira with his wife Ellen and their three sons, Ryan, Charlie and Jack.
