Nikki Cirrincione RN, BSN, MIA

Pickett Design Associates is please to welcome Nicole "Nikki" Cirrincione to its team. Nikki joined us in July of 2015 as a Designer and Bim Support. Prior to joining us she worked for seven years as a Registered Nurse. She has five years of Trauma ICU experience in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and two years of Travel Nurse experience throughout California.

Nikki received her Masters of Interior Architecture from Chatham University and her Bachelors of Science in Nursing from Duquesne University, both located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Her education and work experience enhances her ability to relate to the many challenges we face in the field of healthcare design.

Since joining us, Nikki has become skilled in BIM Modeling for FF&E Space Planning, Schedules and Presentations for two major medical projects; the Northbay Expansion Project in Fairfield, California and the Kaiser Skyport Medical Office Building in San Jose, California.

Nikki has experience in complex work environments and possesses strong communication and organizational skills, as well as an enthusiastic, collaborative spirit. Her passion for design and her ability to thrive in high-pressure work environments make her a valuable asset to our team.

Welcome Nikki!

Kirk Douglas Care Pavilion

We are proud to be part of the team that developed this project for Motion Picture Television Fund for a new 80 bed Long Term Care and Memory Care facility.  Kirk and Anne Douglas have pledged a major gift for this project. The building model was delivered on December 9th 2015 for Kirk's 99th birthday. The model details the future Kirk Douglas Care Pavilion at MPTF which you can donate to here. 

Season of Giving 2015

To express our gratitude for your support, Pickett Design Associates has made a contribution to Heifer Project International.

The organization's mission is to work with these communities to end hunger and poverty and care for the earth. 

All of us at Pickett Design Associates wish you health and happiness this holiday season and throughout the New Year.

Visiting Site Mock-up

We had the pleasure of visiting the patient room mock-up for the Northbay Medical Center Expansion project this week. It's always exciting to be able to physically experience the functional aspects of the space. This is our opportunity to test product placement as well as caregiver access and circulation.
