Why you chose your school/program
I chose Parsons because I was inspired by Samuel Mockbee's Rural Studio at Auburn University. This was when I fell in love with Design/Build.
During my second year, I went onto participate in Parsons Design/Build in 2007. That summer with 10 other students we built Margaretville pavilion, a 6,000 sqft project for a town of 600 people. It is the largest Parsons Design/Build project to date.
It was very hard work, but it was equally rewarding.
