Tony Anella was born and raised in Albuquerque and spent his early summers working on farms and ranches in New Mexico. First and foremost he considers himself a conservationist. As principal of Anthony Anella Architecture, an award-winning architecture and planning practice, the professional accomplishment he is most proud of is the protection from development of 30,828 acres of the Montosa Ranch with a conservation easement.
