Abstract

Brief excerpt from interview: Get a job, not here in Honolulu, but I plan to go back to the mainland, the East Coast--I'm from New England--get some work experience and go to grad school in architecture, and hopefully be an architect someday and design awesome things . . . I didn't think that writing would be a big part of my future--in the past, for some reason, I didn't think that architects write a lot--but you have to communicate with your clients and with the community . . . You have to be able to write your ideas--as an architect you can draw them but you need to be able to write them in words and explain them to other people . . . in a critique, you're being critiqued by your professors, your peers, and by other architects--other people who understand the design process--but when you're an architect, you have to communicate to clients and people who aren't used to hearing that kind of jargon, you have to be able to communicate to them.
