Episode 80: Perseverance In The Face Of Challenges

Saison 4 · Épisode 80

lundi 2 décembre 2024 • Durée 36:52

Hey listeners, this episode marks both our 80th episode and the finale of this series and season. It’s been a true pleasure sharing the stories of licensed architects from diverse backgrounds, and I hope these conversations have given you valuable insights into why some designers choose to pursue licensure. Most importantly, I hope you’ve found inspiration in each episode.

To close out the series, I have a conversation with Dyesha Holmes is a licensed architect at Cooper Carry. With an interdisciplinary background, she works in their Atlanta office planning + urban design and mixed-use studios. She graduated from Kennesaw State University’s Bachelor of Architecture program in 2019, where she was the first recipient of the ARCC King Medal award for her architectural thesis research on “Reframing Urban Redevelopment via Women Empowerment: Sustaining Existing Community in the West End Neighborhood.” This has driven her passion for social and environmental justice design and her belief that architectural design should be based on advocacy over agency. She has a defined purpose of helping people see their full potential within themselves, in the places they

live, and in the work they do. With this purpose in mind, she actively uses design to tell stories through community-led, people-first approach to design to advocate for people in communities.

In her free time, she enjoys volunteering her time in community outreach. She enjoys having opportunities to be involved with different community efforts and professional organizations. In 2021, she acted as community liaison for a mural in the Reynoldstown neighborhood in Atlanta,

GA, organized by the Young Architect’s Foundation of Atlanta (YAF of ATL). In 2021, she was the Director of Communications for NOMAtlanta. She had the honor of being a 2022 graduate of the AIA Georgia Christopher Kelley Leadership Development Program. She sat on the 2022

board for the Atlanta Art and Entertainment. She was a part of Cooper Carry’s Equity and Diversity Council (EDIC) helping to further the advancement of equity within the workplace and design. Currently, she sits as secretary on the Architecture Foundation of Georgia board and was a recent 2024 Project REAP graduate.

While we shared similar feelings towards completing the ARE’s Dyesha shares with us how she merges her love for Urban planning and Architecture in her daily practice.

Episode 79: Overcoming Exam Fears

Saison 4 · Épisode 79

mercredi 27 novembre 2024 • Durée 26:45

Hey listeners, in this episode, I have a conversation with Chris Gongora, a Miami native with Cuban-American roots, Chris's early experiences cycling through the vibrant neighborhoods of South Florida cultivated his appreciation for natural beauty, cultural diversity and unique architecture.

A graduate of Florida International University's Master of Architecture program, Chris's professional journey was inspired by an interest in urban revitalization, particularly in Rust Belt cities. In 2017, he left the plantains and palm trees behind and moved to Detroit, where he has since contributed to the city's renaissance. His work spans a comprehensive range of architectural interventions, including new construction of single-family homes, townhomes, and apartment buildings, as well as significant adaptive reuse and renovation projects.

Beyond his profession, Chris leads architectural bike tours, serves on the board of a local preservation advocacy group, and provides architectural advisory services to small-scale minority developers. Currently, he continues to pour his passion for restoration into renovating his 110-year-old home, a project he shares with his boyfriend and their senior feline companion.

Beyond reminiscing about college, Chris and I delved into the complex mix of guilt and relief that comes with the licensure process. He used powerful analogies to describe the range of emotions he experienced, and they truly resonated with me.

We sketched Paul L. Cejas School of Architecture. You can check out his sketch on our LinkedIn profile. I hope you enjoy this episode!

Episode 068 - Dealing With Mental Health As Creatives

Épisode 68

mercredi 24 mai 2023 • Durée 27:59

This is the last episode in the Architecture and the community theme. The last few episodes have been all about architects, designers and why we think we should be seen in communities. I decided to give us a bit of a break in the lineup of design professionals and bring in someone in the creative space but not necessarily in the design profession to hear their thoughts. So, in this episode, I have a conversation with Kenzie Rowland.

Kenzie Rowland is a comedic actress, writer, TEDx Speaker, mental health advocate and host of her podcast Therapy Would Be Cheaper. Kenzie’s dedication to mental illness advocacy has run parallel with every creative endeavor she’s taken on. Open with her own diagnosis of OCD, Kenzie seeks to uplift others with mental illness through her own vulnerability, sense of self and always, her sense of humor.

So in this episode, we talk about design, architecture and comedy but we also really lean into dealing with mental health as creatives. Since the month of May is wrapping up, I’m inclined to focus on the importance of mental health in a profession that challenges us daily. I met Kenzie about a year ago at our neighborhood Barre studio where she’s an instructor. She is both thoughtful and intentional! Her journey through dealing with mental health as a creative is inspiring. Between Kenzie's podcast about mental health and her experience with mental health just like most of us, she left us with some very insightful tips.

In this episode, Doug gives us a peek into his story as he shares what draws him to design, some lessons he’s learned as a podcast host, the value of design and he got me rethinking the idea of human centric design - to name a few.

Episode #065 - Empathy Within Design

Épisode 65

mercredi 26 avril 2023 • Durée 33:58

This week's guest is Emmanuel Garcia, a project architect at Wheeler Kearns Architects in Chicago and the president of Arquitectos, The Society of Hispanic Professional Architects in Chicago, IL. At WKA, Manny has led institutional, commercial, and educational projects including the Purple Llama Coffee & Record Shop in Chicago’s West Town neighborhood, schematic design for Ednovate’s USC Hybrid High in Los Angeles, and the Chapel of St Joseph at the Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe Church in Des Plaines, IL – which has received several awards including an Interfaith Design Award from Faith & Form and an Interior Architecture Award from AIA Chicago. In 2021, Manny helped transform a former bank building into a welcoming new headquarters for the North Lawndale Employment Network, a nonprofit on the West Side of Chicago whose clients include citizens returning from incarceration and others who face the day-to-day financial hardships of poverty.

Apart from his experience, Manny gives us so much insight into creating community spaces, building relationships and working with members of the community to create thoughtful projects. This episode is very informative and I particularly appreciate the tips Emmanuel give to young designers pursuing community oriented design.

Woods previously served as President & CEO of the National Institute of Building Sciences (NIBS) where she led efforts to expand the organization’s programs and markets while growing and strengthening its membership base.

Prior to joining NIBS, she was the Sr. VP & Chief Marketing Officer at the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB), where her team was responsible for all marketing and revenue-generating programs – including marketing the International Builders Show, sponsorship sales and partnerships with major national companies.

Being on the board of AIA Atlanta, I’ve had the chance to learn and experience the impact this organization has on members and the profession as a whole.

Episode 063 - The Pursuit of Human-Centered Design

Épisode 63

lundi 13 mars 2023 • Durée 32:35

This week's guest is Kaley Fought. As Principal and founding member of Framework Studio Architecture, based in Oregon, Kaley is a lead architect and an NCIDQ certified interior designer. Embracing a multi-disciplinary and progressive studio, she and her partner Chris started Framework with a vision to focus on human-centric, community-enhancing work; creating places that inspire joy and foster meaningful experiences. Kaley’s collaborative approach and pursuit of human-centered design leads her to be a project and client advocate throughout the design process and construction. She is an active member in the community, currently serving as the President of AIA Oregon, and sits on the City of Salem Planning Commission. Kaley believes in the power and impact of architecture, and that architects have a responsibility to improve the world around us through sustainable, equitable, and thoughtful design. At Framework, this is utilized as the platform to inform every project, leading clients through a process to design environmental experiences that encourage dynamic inclusive design at all scales. As an avid equestrian, when not in the studio Kaley can always be found at the barn with her two horses - 4 year old Leo and 30 year old Harley.

I had the pleasure of meeting and chatting with Kaley at the AIA Leadership Summit in DC last month and her passion for community centered design caught my attention immediately that I knew she had to come on the show! I hope you enjoy this episode.
