On The Road
Hello! I am writing this from an amazing AirBnB in Lolo, Montanta. This is our fourth stop on a three week long road trip across America. Our main stops will be Seattle, San Louis Obispo, and Denver with tons a small stops and side roads along the way. Following graduation from my masters of architecture…
Crunchtime Snapshots
From Tuesday to Thursday afternoon, each team was in final production mode and no one got much sleep. After sleeping 4.5 hours between the two days, Thursday was a blur but we printed on time and everything was good to go for our presentation on Friday.

Populonia, Siena, and Monteriggioni

The weather was warm, sunny, and after walking roughly…
Second Try’s a Charm
After three airports, two flights, a bus ride, and one failed apartment reservation later, we’ve settled for the next three days in Nice! Our seven hour flight from Chicago to Dublin was fairly uneventful and we successfully made it to our connecting two hour flight from Dublin to Nice. While totally exhausted but excited, we…
