Growing up in Huntington, West Virginia, Edward Wells Tucker began working with James R. Tucker, AIA and Robert L. Brown, AIA at the age of 16. Graduating with high honors from the University of Tennessee in 1982, he moved to Nashville, Tennessee to continue his architectural internship, gaining licensure in 1986. Between 1982 and 1990, he gained a wealth of experience in many building types, serving as Project Architect of a high rise office and parking structure, university renovation projects, child care centers, church additions, office buildings, industrial buildings, parking structures and state park facilities. In 1990, he joined Vanderbilt University as Staff Architect - Campus Planning, Medical Center. In the following five years, he managed and/or designed projects with a construction value of $40 million. This period of representing the institution's interests gives him unique insight into his client's concerns that few architects share.

After nearly twelve years in Nashville, Edward Tucker returned to Huntington in February 1995 to begin his own firm. This was accomplished through the acquisition and renewal of Dean and Dean, Inc. Architects. On August 1, 1996, the firm of Edward Tucker, Architect officially opened to continue a lineage that began almost ninety years ago. Since that time, the firm has grown to become Edward Tucker Architects, Inc., with a focus on healthcare, academic, industrial, commercial and public projects.
