Fish Architects PLLC

Listed Reason

This is a "disregarded entity" essentially it is a sole proprietor/self employment business by which commissions for architectural services and artistic works commissions are collected. I am in supervisory control of all professional work. The professional work performed thru this entity is considered an integral part of my academic portfolio a professional appointed in a professional program.

Additional Comments

During appointment periods time commitments for this entity are tightly limited and while supervisory control is maintained in a manner that meets professional requirements and standards, most day to day business is delegated to others. In between appointment periods, an increase in estimated number of number of hours (from that described above) would be expected but also varies widely depending on need. Compensation can vary widely from year to year depending on the specific nature of the commission and scopes of work therein. There in not a good corollary between compensation and time commitment. Professional practice in ones area of expertise should not reasonably appear to create a conflict of interest unless those services are being used by the UT System. My practice does not pursue architectural projects in higher education, nor any kind of work associated with the UT system. As a sole practitioner, with a staff largely managed by others, the time commitment required to maintain highest professional standards is minimal. During appointment periods my time is limited to less than one full day per week or two partial days per week (often on weekends) and does not interfere with my commitment to the University.

Notes: When a more specific filing date is not available for an individual financial disclosure or conflict of interest form, we use the year the form was filed. If the year was not disclosed, we report the range of years covered by our public records requests. In a few cases, a start date was provided instead of a filing date. In those cases, we use the start date instead.

Fewer than 10% of records from the University of Florida and fewer than 1% of records from the University of Texas system were removed because they did not contain enough information.

ProPublica obtained additional financial disclosures and conflict of interest forms that we have not yet digitized and added to the database. You can download those disclosures in the ProPublica Data Store.
