For the past year, Grabazs, who grew up in Belchertown, Mass., has been working on a building at Wellesley College, about an hour and a half east of her hometown. She led the design for renovation of Wellesley Science Center, which is an interconnected complex originally constructed in the 1920s and then expanded in the 1970s and the 1990s.

She is also heavily involved in SOM’s mentorship programs, supervising interns and mentoring junior staff members.
