As an application of this passion, he has participated in urban design workshops and been an invited juror on urban design competitions in major American cities. Smith brings extensive management and leadership experience to PUSH studio based on prior roles as acting deputy director of the Prince George’s County, Maryland, Redevelopment Authority and academic chairmanships at Florida A and M University and Morgan State University.
