In a few short years, I evolved from being a junior architecture staff working for everyone else to a licensed architect with interns and junior staff suddenly reporting to me. In this former job everyone was so disengaged and there was absolutely no benefit in staying there, in fact that office was toxic for my development.

Competitions are a integral part of the architecture experience. Since architecture school and throughout our careers, design competitions provide a vehicle for architects to promote our talents and showcase our skills. A well developed plan will provide a map to live the life of your dreams. I hope to see you in Chicago.

One of the requirements of becoming a licensed architect is the intern development program which logs on the job training under certain tasks which is then signed off by a licensed architect. In this former job everyone was so disengaged and there was absolutely no benefit in staying there, in fact that office was toxic for my development.

In architecture school, we each had a professor who told us that architecture should be practiced for the art and art alone. “If If you want to make money”, they said, “quit now, take a walk across campus and enroll at the business school.”. The following is an introduction to The Entrepreneur Architect Manifesto. .

Architectural schools are often staffed with educators who are ill at ease actually practicing in the “real world”. By extension, it leads we architects to feel we have a better path, a path that we know and you should all be following; taken to an extreme it can make us elitist and at its worst cynical.

I was conflicted at the time because a) I was really happy to have found a job right out of school when so many others could not, and b) I had one studio in school that I hated, and we mostly focused on retail design. Working at a small firm that did work around the country meant that my boss traveled quite a bit.
