Derick Stadge Named Higher Education Market Leader at BHDP Architecture
BHDP Architecture is proud to announce the promotion of Derick Stadge to Market Leader for its Higher Education market. With over 20 years of experience, including 11 years at the firm, Derick has become a trusted leader.
Derick specializes in leading complex higher education projects—from student centers and research labs to residence halls and multi-purpose academic spaces. Beginning at BHDP as a project architect, Derick has also held roles as a project manager and client leader.
“I’m excited to be back at BHDP and in this new role,” said Derick. “My five and a half years at The Ohio State University provided me with new perspective on strategic and capital planning, risk management, and building consensus across diverse stakeholder groups that I am looking forward to continuing leveraging for the benefit of our clients."
Derick is passionate about helping higher education institutions turn vision into reality by translating ideas into spaces that are functional, inspiring, and impactful for students, faculty, and communities. He has worked on projects with public and independent universities within Ohio, as well as others stretching from Texas to New Jersey.
“I’m thrilled to pass the baton of Market Leader to Derick and couldn’t think of a better person for this role,” said Paul Orban, Chief Revenue Officer and former Higher Education Market Leader. “He leverages his college and university planning expertise to strategically guide campus leaders, builds strong client relationships, and holds a high bar for the delivery of our services.”
Similar to his previous Client Leader role, Derick will continue to build and maintain relationships with education clients and manage the strategic direction of the Higher Education Market at BHDP.
