WHY YOU BECAME AN ARCHITECT It’s a renaissance subject that combines artistic and academic disciplines
ADVICE TO ASPIRING FEMALE ARCHITECTS Focus on being yourself and doing a good job. Ignore the pressure of being a minority
WHY WOMEN LEAVE Maternity leave gives women a chance to assess the disparity between their career and their expectations when studying architecture. More men would leave if they had a similar opportunity for reflection
