What was the most important thing/skill/concept you learned at the School of Architecture?
Methods and nuance of graphical representation, and critical thinking.
Who made the most lasting impression (most influenced you) and why?
I was most influenced by studio professors that demonstrated what contemporary practice looks like including the tools, philosophies, and aesthetics. David Newton and Marc Swackhammer were influencing professors.
What is your favorite memory from your studio days?
Exposure to new tools and techniques, both software in studios and the excellent workshops, and challenging design crits.
Please identify one (or more) memorable design project that you worked on while a student at the School of Architecture.
Creating laser cut models for studio.
What major forces (such as individual architects, design philosophies, rendering styles, research methods, etc.) do you remember influencing you significantly as a student?
I took away a strong appreciation for phenomenology and critical regionalism. From a tool standpoint, having early exposure to V-Ray and digital fabrication has been tremendously helpful professionally.
Cite an example (be specific) that illustrates how you used the education you received at the School of Architecture to positively impact (or better) your community, city, nation or the world.
While I was underemployed in 2009, I volunteered with Public Architecture. Public Architecture is a San Francisco based non-profit that attempts to make design services more accessible to the general public
