H. Sloane Mayor, AIA, NCARB
Principal
Sloane joined Chris Kennedy at UK Architects in 2018 and together they created Mayor+Kennedy Architects in 2019. A New England native, she fundamentally understands the culture and climate of the Upper Valley. She has practiced architecture in Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont, and before joining Chris, headed a sole practice in Lebanon, NH from 2009 to 2018.
Sloane provides extensive leadership in client communication and building design. She is an expert in high performance building technology and remains on the forward edge of sustainable design and construction by continuing to be passionate about the integration of design, technology, energy efficiency and affordability.
As an active community volunteer, Sloane currently serves as past president on the board of directors of AIA NH, having just served as president for two years, and is on the board of Trustees at Alice Peck Day Hospital and at LifeCare. Prior volunteer roles include serving as a director on various boards including the AVA Gallery and Art Center where she served as board chair for 3 years. She has advocated for walkable and bikeable communities through her service on the Town of Hanover’s Bike and Pedestrian Committee and Safe Routes to School Committee, and also coached youth soccer in Hanover for seven years.
Sloane received her BA, cum laude, with a major in architecture from Wellesley College in 1987, which included taking courses at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Syracuse University in Florence, and Trinity College in Rome, Italy. In 1993 she received a master’s degree in architecture from the University of Pennsylvania.
Sloane grew up in Hanover, NH. After graduate school, she lived and practiced in Maine for 15 years (while also sport class mountain bike racing), then relocated once more to Hanover in 2005. When not in the office you can find her walking her dogs, Piper and Nova, or mountain biking on our local trails.
