About 

Hello!  My name is Matthew Yeo, I am aspiring to become an architect.  I am Currently enrolled in the Architecture program at Florida Atlantic University.  I have completed three years of the course and will be starting my fourth year soon.  I have a desire to learn about every element that is composed into creating architecture, so I need to gather experience from the many different sectors of the industry.  When I become an architect I want to specialize in environmentally sustainable design, and one day hope to create a new type of architecture that preserves nature while creating the buildings that society needs.  I live in Fort Lauderdale Florida and have lived in this state all my life.
