IIDA NY Chapter

fWe’re thrilled to announce that Amy Mays, IIDA, Director of Interior Design at HDR, has been honored with the 2025 Leadership Award of Excellence at this year’s Leaders Breakfast® in New York.

A trailblazer in healthcare design and a dedicated advocate for mentorship, collaboration, and community, Amy has shaped more than just interiors—she’s shaped the future of our industry. Her commitment to IIDA NY, including her past role as Chapter President and current leadership on both the DEX and Volunteer Committees, exemplifies the true spirit of service and design excellence.

💬 In her remarks, Amy reminded us: “The energy we put out into the world is contagious. When we radiate optimism and motivation, we empower others to do the same.”

Congratulations, Amy, on this well-deserved recognition—and thank you for inspiring us all.
