About Mr. Dudney

An associate at KCCT in Washington, D.C., Mr. Dudney has been a key member of the firm since 2002. For more than two decades, he has worked extensively on the design and construction of U.S. embassies and other secure government facilities, many of which involve historic preservation. His daily responsibilities include communicating with clients, overseeing staff and project teams, producing and reviewing design documents and coordinating detailed information with engineering consultants. He also prepares and reviews invoices, manages administrative tasks and addresses requests for information from contractors in the field.

A hallmark of Mr. Dudney's career is his leadership during the construction administration of the United States Embassy in Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea. The project earned LEED Gold certification, thereby reflecting his commitment to sustainable design and careful project coordination. Throughout his career, he has emphasized taking responsibility for each task and working closely with clients to deliver thoughtful design solutions. He believes strong communication and open discussion help ensure that projects meet both design goals and practical needs. Staying current with software, design programs and building codes has remained a priority, along with maintaining awareness of evolving products and materials within the industry.

Architecture requires constant collaboration with engineers across multiple disciplines. Mr. Dudney notes that structural, mechanical, electrical and plumbing engineers play an essential role in shaping how spaces come together and that coordinating their work with the overall design remains a key part of his approach.

He further asserts that the success of the built environment depends on seamless coordination between urban planning, site design, landscape architecture and civil engineering.

In short, Mr. Dudney affirms that true success involves orchestrating a variety of industry experts to transform a shared client vision into a constructible reality.

Taking on Challenges

Mr. Dudney earned a Bachelor of Architecture from the University of Notre Dame in 1985. The education he received there provided a strong foundation in design principles and planning methods that continue to guide his work. He credits his determination, willingness to take on challenges and commitment to staying informed about industry developments for his ongoing success. Professional involvement has also shaped his career. He maintains memberships with the American Institute of Architects, the National Trust for Historic Preservation and the D.C. Preservation League. These associations reflect his dedication to architectural standards and historic preservation.

In his community, Mr. Dudney volunteers with the Dupont Circle Conservancy and currently serves as its president. His goal is to support preservation efforts in one of Washington's historic neighborhoods. Outside of work, he enjoys skiing, biking, working out, water skiing, dining out with friends, attending concerts and professional sporting events, and spending time with family.
