My name is Honour Colby, and I am currently seeking work as an architectural designer. I was recently employed as an Architectural Associate here in San Francisco, but was impacted by layoffs due to financial struggles within the firm. I learned so much during my short time in that role, and although it was cut short, it made me eager to continue pursuing a career in architecture. I recently completed my final year of undergraduate study at the University of Oregon. I graduated in June with an NAAB accredited Bachelor of Architecture as well as a Bachelor of Arts in Romance Languages, both of which I completed concurrently in the last four years.
