Museums are more than where history is preserved, they are launchpads for the future. We're proud to have sponsored the 2024 Association of African American Museums in Baltimore, MD. It was an honor to be among nearly 1,000 cultural leaders such as Dr.Carla Hayden, the first woman or African American to lead the Library of Congress. We look forward to collaborating soon with our new friends and colleagues! #AAAM #CulturalResources #MuseumDesign
Thank you Alexis Rodgers! It was a joy to have you on our team for the summer!
This summer, I had the pleasure of interning at Self + Tucker Architects. It was an amazing opportunity that granted me the chance to learn and enhance my skills architecturally. The internship allowed me to improve on my communication, collaboration, and time management skills within an office environment. With, Sonia Raheel as my mentor, I was able to work on multiple projects, attend meetings and site visits, as well as contribute to the team. I am very thankful to the principals, co-workers, and other interns that I was able to connect with and learn from in abundance.
