Brennen received his Bachelor's degree in Architecture from the University of Colorado in 1994. After completing a Masters of Architecture at the same institution in 1998, Brennen worked for a small Design Build firm, and the seed of the "complete project experience" was planted. Since joining Scott S. Turnipseed, AIA in 2000, he has worked on a wide variety of Architecture and Construction projects within the firm. He currently manages several Architecture projects which he has designed, including a custom residence in Bachelor Gulch, several custom Eagle Ranch Residences, and a small tenant finish retail space in Vail.
