📌 About Evan Troxel

Evan Troxel is a licensed architect in Oregon and California, founder of TRXL Media, and host of the industry-leading TRXL and Archispeak podcasts, where he interviews the AEC industry's most innovative thinkers. His work sits at the intersection of design, technology, and communication.

He brings over two decades of experience in architecture, education, and digital practice leadership—most recently as Principal and Director of Digital Practice at a 400-person architecture firm. This background gives him a rare blend of real-world leadership experience and deep knowledge of emerging technologies.

Evan's passion lies in helping architecture and design leaders cut through the hype, overcome cultural and technical barriers, and help them adapt and thrive in an evolving industry.

I think I first came across Evan Troxel on the Brand Groupies podcast, as I was doing some early planning for guests on this show, so I’m excited to be having this conversation over a year later!
