“In order to effectively improve the conditions of our communities, we have to start by addressing the needs of children,” Osan said. “Not just healthcare for children, but education, research, recreation, nutrition and that list goes on. All of these factors are critical in setting the path for a child’s future, and our firms’ combined expertise will allow us to address these factors and set children and communities up for success.”

Osan will assume the role as leader of CannonDesign’s Pediatric Health Practice. Looking beyond the traditional definition of healthcare, she will lead the practice in exploring ways to support the health and well-being of children across numerous environmental settings. She’ll also be joining the firm’s board of directors. Going forward, FKP will conduct business as FKP | CannonDesign.
