Anne Marie DeKeyser is a passionate and forward-thinking associate who sees the intersection of beauty and functionality as a core principle of architecture. A recent graduate of Ball State University (2025), Anne Marie brings a strong foundation in both creative vision and technical expertise.

With experience from several internships across the Midwest, she has contributed to a range of project types, including Higher Education, Medical, Laboratory, K–12, Multi-Family, and more. Since joining StudioAXIS in 2025, she has played a key role in a variety of commercial projects, always focused on creating spaces that are both innovative and environmentally responsible.

Anne Marie is driven by a desire to understand people and to use design as a tool to enhance their lives. She is committed to building strong relationships with her peers and clients, which fosters continuous growth—as an architect, student, community member, teammate, and friend. Outside the office, she is actively involved in the American Institute of Architects (AIA) and the Young Architects Forum (YAF), and enjoys traveling to other cities to gain architectural inspiration that is based upon the people who live in it.

Maarten believes in architecture as an intersection of art and technology, and brings his advanced technical skills to the team, including a mix of 2D and 3D graphical capabilities and computational design talent.

He received a full ride scholarship to Ball State University and graduated with a B.Arch degree in 2022. Before coming to studioAXIS in 2024, he further pursued his creative interests by taking online classes in topics like UX and procedural design while working at a conventional architectural office. As a young, aspiring architect, he aims to leverage technology to create beautiful form and imagery through experimental techniques while pursuing traditional licensure. He uses his talents to generate clarity and cohesion in his designs, working with clients to generate meaningful and impactful design concepts that create a distinct identity. 

Since graduation, Maarten has worked on a variety of project types from multi-family, commercial, residential and service industries in the state of Indiana and beyond. His love of travel has exposed him to many spectacular environments in Europe and Asia and he hopes to create similar inspirational new experiences to people through his designs for the built environment.

Shreya believes the key to a good design is to listen, observe, and prioritize the needs of the end user.

Shreya has always been intrigued by the interplay of spaces, memories, trajectories, and emotions. Her upbringing in Dubai, led her to witness the dynamic evolution of the cityscape and sparked her fascination with architecture. 

Beginning her career as an architect in Dubai, Shreya worked for 3 years on various residential, commercial, hospitality, mixed-use, and landscape projects. Her journey continued with graduate studies at the Savannah College of Art and Design in Georgia, further refining her craft.  Shreya always strives to push boundaries with each project and relishes new design challenges. She is constantly honing her skillset and thrives in the collaborative side of the industry.

Her global experiences have influenced her people-centric approach to design. She believes that there is a constant and delicate balance of respecting and maintaining the local identity, while also creating spaces that truly become intersections of different languages, cultures, and identities.

Shreya sees architecture as a powerful tool for addressing pressing societal and climate issues. Good design has the ability to serve both the client and the broader community, enriching neighborhoods. With functionality at the forefront to her design process, she aims to create designs that can leave a positive social impact on the communities it serves.

Behind every good design is an even better story.

Mitchell is a 2022 graduate of Ball State University. He has had his eye on architecture from an early age with a passion for drawing and building. While recently starting in the profession, he is eager to dive into the field of architecture and soak up as much information as he can. Mitchell gained an appreciation and fascination for detail and the technical side of architecture while at school. He looks forward to using that in combination with his love of design to bring clients’ ideas to reality. One thing he’s excited to dive deeper into is the collaborative side of the profession. He looks forward to working with others and helping each other to achieve a common goal.

Mitchell brings a team-focused mind and unique perspective to the field of architecture. This comes from his volunteer work helping with his church at college and volunteering with different organizations within the school of architecture. He’s also obtained a unique perspective from his many travels. While only having been to twenty-three states and seven countries, he hopes to quickly expand that in the coming years. When not at work, he fills his time with events at his local church, spending time with friends and family, or traveling somewhere new.
