Okay, let’s tackle this. So Britt Ripley has a diverse set of skills in architecture, environmental planning, and energy efficiency. She’s based in Pocatello, Idaho, which is a smaller market. The average rates for architects and environmental planners in the US vary widely depending on experience, location, and industry demand. For a junior-level professional with a strong educational background in architecture or environmental planning, rates can start around $50–$75 per hour. Considering Britt’s skills and experience, I’d estimate her rate to be on the higher side of this range, but still relatively lower than what you’d expect in a major city. Maybe around $75 per hour.
