My final year of architecture school was spent in an Autodesk-funded studio, where we pushed Autodesk technologies to its limits by individually creating our own tools for design using multiple plug-ins for the 3D Modeling environment. This exercise drastically changed the way in which I approach the design process both through theory and digital practice. I also spent a majority of my undergraduate education working on graphic design for Shuffle Magazine and for SIBS (an NSF-funded program within the SoA). These experiences had the most impact on my skills relevant to architectural design.
