JOHN LUCENTEPORTFOLIO ‘11-12

I was born and grew up in Windsor

Ontario. Attended Ste Ceciles Acad-

emie from grades 1 through 12.

Graduated and went to post sec-

ondary school at University of Wind-

sor for a year of business and math

electives before enrolling in the St.

Clair College Architectural program.

My roots are Italian and Canadian,

and at the age of 13 I spent the sum-

mer in Florence; Italy, studying Ital-

ian and touring the country with my

sister. I went back to Italy at the age

of 16 with my father and sister, visit-

ing family and touring southern Italy,

Calabria; where my father was born.

From the age of ~12 to 17, I spent

much of my time racing bicycles

for a local team (Maple Leafs).

I’ve raced nationals in Beauce;

Quebec, and stage races in Bos-

ton, Mass., Also winning races

across Ontario, including the local

Erie street bike race as a junior. I

still ride my road bike today, how-

ever, not at a competitive level.

My goals in the architectural fi eld

are to graduate from St. Clair Col-

lege in 2013, go to Lawrence Tech-

nological University to obtain my un-

dergraduate degree, then go onto

my masters degree. My dream is to

become, one day, a principle design-

er and architectural illustrationist.
