BIOGRAPHY
Mallory began her career with Duany Plater-Zyberk & Company, the international leader in new urbanist design, development and implementation practices. There she developed her skills in master-planning, building schematics, code development, urban revitalization, sustainable visioning, and management of projects as diverse as the redevelopment of the heart of Peoria, IL to 3,200 acres of sustainable conservation resort development on the Baja Peninsula of Mexico. Evolving from her international work, Mallory became a founder of the firm’s first affiliate office, DPZpacific, overseeing new urbanist work across the pan-Pacific region.

Her studies there included a year spent at the school’s celebrated Rome Studies Program. Mallory received a masters degree in Sustainable Urban Development from the University of Oxford, which is delivered in partnership with the King's Foundation for Building Community. Her dissertation on the intersection of historic preservation and social sustainability received honorable distinction, and was included in the New Urban Research selection in 2019.
