When I was in fifth grade someone told me that I would make a good architect. I didn't really know what that meant, but I liked building forts in the back yard with my friends, so it sounded like fun.

As I went through school I realized that architecture wasn't just about drawing floor plans on graph paper. I learned that architecture shapes the experiences that we have. It's a great mystery and a puzzle.

My understanding of architecture changes with every new project. The more I learn the more I am fascinated by the experience.
