I recently returned to New York, where I worked prior to attending graduate school.  I have completed IDP, and hope to complete the ARE in the coming year. 

This past May I completed the Master of Architecture program at Washington University in St. Louis, where I worked with Kathryn Dean as an Editorial Assistant for Approach, and with Peter MacKeith as project designer for Washington University in Shanghai, a new study center created in affiliation with Fudan University.  I collaborate regularly with my partner Meredith Klein, and with others including Thomas Kosbau of ORE design and technology group, and Artist Shaw Xu Zhifeng.

At WUSTL, I was a Danforth Scholar, a recipient of the Dean's Summer Travel Fellowship, and was nominated for the Widmann Prize, the Hugh Ferriss Award for Architectural Drawing, and awarded the AIA Henry Adams Certificate of Merit.

And now the longer, 3rd person bio:
Aaron Plewke was born in Chicago and grew up in South Florida. He graduated summa cum laude with a Bachelor of Design in Architecture from the University of Florida, where he acted as Editor-in-Chief of Architrave, the School of Architecture's design magazine. Aaron has also studied at John Cabot University in Rome, the Danish Institute for Study Abroad in Copenhagen, UF's East Asia Program in Hong Kong, and the Vicenza Institute of Architecture. 

Aaron has practiced architecture in Florida, New York, and St. Louis. 

Since January 2007 Aaron has served as an Editor for Archinect.com. In this role he has created several pieces of original content that have been published as feature articles, including an interview on the foundations of contemporary architectural practice with NYC design studio Lyn Rice Architects; a curated review project for MoMA's 2008 exhibition, Design and the Elastic Mind; a series of micro-interviews with the NY Architectural League's 2009 Emerging Voices honorees; and an in-depth interview with Jeffrey Inaba and Gavin Browning of Columbia University's C-Lab on a collaborative project they completed with the editors of Urban China.

Aaron has represented Archinect as a panelist at the Storefront for Art and Architecture's "Postopolis!" event in New York (2007), as a panelist at IIDEX/NeoCon in Toronto (2009), and as a juror for the Ken Robers Memorial Delineation Competition in Dallas (2009).
