Having started at RSP as an intern while attending ASU, Shanti Okawa has rapidly become an integral and invaluable part of the interior design team. In a few short years, she has grown into an accomplished Project Interior Designer in the Phoenix office, now taking a leading role in complex interiors projects, from the earliest interview stages to programming, design and Construction Documents to Construction Administration and final site walkthroughs. She is the leading Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) advocate in RSP’s Phoenix office, always pushing colleagues and clients to think more broadly about opportunities to enhance inclusivity in new ways.
