Staying Sharp Over the Summer

Hello again! 

Time really flies by when you’re doing what you love. It’s been a year since I started my journey as an architecture student here at Roger Williams. Without doubts, first year was incredible, but challenging. I won’t lie by saying everything was sunshine and rainbows. But all the stress and late nights definitely paid off. This summer I had the chance to go back home (much needed!) There I spent my time with family and friends, volunteering, and relaxing. I also took 3 architectural courses to keep myself on top of my game. As an international student, going home for the summer was a great way to renew my energies for the new year. This semester already looks promising. My goals this semester are the same: keep improving my abilities, expand my creativity, and learn as much as I can. I can’t wait to learn more about the projects we’re going to be working on and share them with you. 
I’ll keep you posted.
