While definitions 1, 2, and 4 apply, I identify myself most with description 3. “the deviser, maker, or creator of anything” I think these years in “architecture school” have prepared me not just for the built environment, but have set up a great foundation for my life as a designer in general. Looking and analyzing how people interact with everything around them helps me to design specifically for them. As architects, we are trained to be the devisers, makers, and creators of anything. It’s an honor to be given the opportunity to engage in every aspect of someone’s life.
What are the architect’s responsibilities?
Each architect has a different responsibility. This depends on the architect’s own mentality and the standards they set for themselves. I see it as a civic duty and a personal responsibility to create a positive environment for the people of today and the people of the future.

What is the definition of an innovative architect?
An innovative architect is always looking for inspiration, but at the same time, always inspiring others. They look for new ways of looking at and creating things, spaces, and ideas. An innovative architect finds problems, proposes potential problems, and offers creative solutions that others may not think of.

Where is the architect’s laboratory?
An architect’s laboratory can be anywhere. Every day we can be inspired by anything, and from that anything, great things can be created.

Why do you do what you do?
Because it is my calling ...
sounds to absurd.
It is my passion …
sounds too serious.
Love requires commitment…
