With almost 30 years of experience working in New York, Losonczy has devoted her career to designing joyful and memorable learning environments, many of them in historic contexts. Her expertise spans from master planning and architectural design to complex adaptive reuse projects.

She currently co-chairs the AIA New York Education Committee, serves on the Board of the Association for Learning Environments, New York Chapter, and is a Fellow of the Urban Design Forum.
