My name is Sydney Harmon, and I am a recent graduate of the college of architecture at Cornell University. I have also gained valuable experience through a summer internship at a local firm. Additionally, as an African American woman in this field, I am among the few who represent a rare point of view that can broaden the reach of architecture. My design ingenuity, knowledge of digital programs, and unique perspective make me an ideal designer.
