AIA VISION

VISION: Architect's Leadership Program

A few months ago, I was selected to be a participant in Season 5 of AIA Cincinnati's VISION program, whose purpose is to support emerging architects in Cincinnati with programming that addresses professional advancement, firm development, and community outreach. Throughout the program, participants are asked to consider the challenges Cincinnati’s architects face in terms of legacy, design, project delivery, politics, management practices, community, education, and economics.

The 10 month program includes keynote lectures, seminars, workshops, professional networking opportunities, exposure to local and national leaders and issues, panel discussions moderated by local AIA Fellows and firm leadership, monthly presentation and discussion forums, and a mechanism to provide continuous feedback to participating architects and firms. 

I'm very excited to be involved with VISION and look forward to seeing how it helps me take the Starter Home 2.0 Project to the next level once the Pleasant Ridge build is complete. Here is a link to the VISION website where you can learn more about the program and participants.
