“JPA architects have worked with San Felipe Del Rio CISD on various projects over the past 2 years. As the District’s Superintendent, I have been able to observe Mr. Peña’s work on a professional level. Most recently, Mr. Peña and his firm worked collaboratively with District leadership team and community stakeholders in the development and proposal of a $60 million project. Mr. Peña spent every valuable moment reviewing and understanding the needs of the District, which ultimately resulted in effective cost estimates and schematic designs for this project.”

“This is to recommend JPA architects, and its principal, Mr. Jorge Pena AIA, for professional architectural services for your future projects. Mr. Pena has worked with AVANCE, Inc. on the addition and restoration of our national headquarters building in San Antonio, Texas. This project has been a challenge for the design and construction team since it is a registered historic building in a downtown location. From pre-design services to the construction phase, Mr. Pena has helped us in solving a variety of challenges in dealing with different local, state and federal agencies for approvals. He has worked closely with us, the construction manager, and the general contractor to ensure that the project is within our budget and timeline.”
