PRINCIPAL

With over 30 years of experience in architecture, Bert Gardner specializes in educational design, where he finds deep fulfillment in creating spaces that positively impact students, educators, and communities. A native of southeastern Massachusetts, Bert enjoys the dynamic challenges architecture brings—from building meaningful client relationships to navigating the nuances of each unique project.

Bert considers earning his architectural registration a key milestone and is known for being detail-oriented, innovative, adaptable, and resourceful. Outside of work, he enjoys traveling and spending time outdoors—snowshoeing in winter and hiking, biking, and paddling in the summer. He’s also been involved with the Chicopee Boys & Girls Club and Grace United Church.

Bert appreciates Caolo & Bieniek Architects for its family-focused culture and collaborative environment that supports both professional growth and everyday camaraderie.
