Through all of the hardwork put in this quarter I have learned a lot about architecture and design, as well as a lot about myself. Through studio I have discovered my full potential and the incredible things I can achieve through talking to and collaborating with others. Coming into this quarter I feel that I had more experience than many people in the class and was able to use my experience to help teach and show others as well as develop and refine my own skills.
