Little moments can brighten the day:

Walking back home after cutting pieces of my final model, waiting for the crosswalk sign, a very small little girl, holding her mom’s hand, looks up and asks me what I’m carrying. So I explain that these are pieces of a very small building. I say that I’m an architecture student, and working on my last project at CMU. She asks what the project is about, so I tell her, honestly, that I’m bringing an imaginary palace to life. In return, I get a huge smile from both little girl and mom.

Architecture: Living the dream.

A general announcement:

This site is currently in version 2.2. Version 3.0 will be unveiled by May 2013. It is going to be awesome and less squished to the left side of your screen.

If you have stumbled upon this site for one reason or another, I may be able to help you with something (and you can help me!); although currently a student, I am beginning the dreadful post-graduation-real-person-job search, in architecture and tangential fields (and, as always, am in the middle of a number of freelance jobs and would be happy to take on more), and I have a vast array of talents. If you’re looking for someone who can edit, design, critique, research, draw (I use this term in the broadest sense), animate, document, cook (as long as you don’t mind eating vegetarian), I can do it all, and more. I am organized, motivated, and well trained in the arts of speculation*. Overall, I’m a pretty good person to have around. So please hire me, for something.

Browse around for proof, or request a finely tailored representation of what I can do for YOU.

*Architecture and literature.

Sometimes, you can use the present tense to make people temporarily forget you’re actually writing about history. Good trick.
