First Moment when you realized you wanted to be an Architect
When I was introduced to the world of architecture in high school, I was intrigued by all the different opportunities that architecture had to offer. I could pursue drawing, construction, graphic design, and even become a LEGO Designer! This, along for my continued interest for buildings and skyscrapers, sparked my desire to become an Architect.
