Charvy Shah

Charvy is a Designer at Schooley Caldwell, bringing a lifelong passion for the built environment that began on construction sites alongside her father. This early exposure to the mechanics of building, paired with a deep-seated interest in history, art, and culture, naturally led her to a career in architecture where she could blend technical precision with creative storytelling.

Charvy earned her Bachelor of Architecture with a minor in Urban Planning from Nirma University in Ahmedabad and is a licensed architect in India. Her diverse professional portfolio includes significant work in heritage preservation and documentation, as well as the design of climate-responsive, sustainable housing solutions for marginalized communities. At the firm, she applies this holistic perspective to create resilient, community-focused designs that honor their historical context.

Beyond the studio, Charvy is an avid traveler who finds inspiration in exploring different cultures. Known for her unique rapport with animals, she brings an empathetic and spirited energy to both her personal adventures and her professional collaborations.
