McCullough is excited to welcome Tianchi Zhang to the Los Angeles office!
Tianchi Zhang, a seasoned landscape designer grew up in Wenzhou, China, a small city south of Shanghai. Inspired by his father who is an architect, Tianchi developed a passion for designing environments by drawing sketches and plans from a young age. He pursued his education in landscape architecture, earning a bachelor’s degree in China in 2015 and a master’s degree from the Ohio State University in 2019.
With five years of diverse experience, Tianchi has honed his skills in preliminary design, construction documentation, construction administration, and project management. His portfolio includes single-family and multi-family residential projects, mixed-use developments, civil works, urban spaces, public parks, as well as educational campuses from K-12 and universities. His career has taken him across various locations in the US, including Columbus, Pittsburgh, Stuart, Durham, Los Angeles, and now San Diego. As an Associate at McCullough, Tianchi will work as a project manager to expand the team in Los Angeles while also collaborating with the San Diego and Oakland office on projects. He will assist in the company’s business development efforts for the Greater Los Angeles area.
In his personal time, Tianchi enjoys listening and singing to all kinds of music, playing board games, practicing basketball, and training kickboxing. He also loves exploring delicious Chinese cuisines and tasty Japanese restaurants with his wife, and walking their Bichon, Jojo. A fun fact about Tianchi is that he takes it seriously in covering songs by his favorite bands, Coldplay and One Republic, and his stage name is Johnny!
