Daren Willden brings over 15 years of architecture experience and nearly two decades in construction to Davis Partnership, offering a unique perspective from both sides of the design process. He has held leadership positions in industry organizations, including a four-year tenure as president of the Salt Lake chapter of the National Utility Contractors Association. Daren is a licensed architect in Colorado, with accreditations in LEED BD+C and EDAC.

Outside of work, he's a family man with a passion for travel, having visited 17 countries and he plans to visit many more (fun fact – He's probably the only person you know who has been mugged on a Russian subway). Photography is another interest, with plans to acquire a large format film camera. He also enjoys skiing, although he wishes it were more affordable and closer to home.
