This is my response to a discouraged new designer trying to break into the field of architecture.
Maybe—just maybe—you need to start your own thing.
I learned this the hard way. If you’re always waiting for someone else to hand you the opportunity, the experience, or the paycheck… you’ll wait forever. The middleman will always take the biggest slice, and you’ll be left hoping they “let you” grow.
After 15+ years working for myself in architecture and design, here’s what I know for sure:
- Clients are where the money is.
- Experience comes from doing—not waiting.
- Skills grow fastest when you’re responsible for the outcome.
- Entrepreneurship forces you to become who you’re meant to be.
School gave me a foundation, but everything that made me valuable came from stepping out on my own, taking on real projects, solving real problems, and learning fast.
If you feel stuck… if you feel overlooked… if you know you’re capable of more—
Start building something of your own.Even small. Even messy.But start.
Your future won’t change until you do.
If you want guidance, clarity, or someone to help you map out your next steps, I’m offering a free one-on-one call to new designers.No pressure. Just direction.

Imagine a school where students aren’t trapped in theory, but designing, building, and solving problems from day one. That’s what we’re building here.
