WHAT RELATIONSHIPS HAVE YOU CREATED?
Through my work at the AIA Racial Justice Working Group for Culture Change in Practice and as a member of the most recent Leadership Development Survey Course (LDSC) cohort at the Housing Development Consortium, I have met some phenomenal human beings who are quietly and steadily moving the needle towards an equitable profession and built environment. They have become allies who I can reach out to in my work as an architect and a champion of equity and diversity.
