Architects Like Me
Welcome to "Architects Like Me,” a podcast series where I, Biancha Claritt, an architect-in-training based in Atlanta, GA, share the inspiring stories of emerging and seasoned professionals in the AEC (Architecture, Engineering, and Construction) industry. With a Bachelor of Architecture and a BS in Construction Management from Kennesaw State University, I've had the privilege of collaborating with visionary individuals who redefine what it means to be a professional.
Join me as I interview these remarkable architects and construction professionals, documenting their journeys, challenges, and successes. Together, we'll explore their innovative approaches, leadership qualities, and the impact they continue to make in our industry. Tune in to be inspired by their experiences and gain valuable insights into the future of architecture and construction.

Architects Like Me with Nelson A
In this conversation, Nelson Agalaba, a fifth-year architecture student and artist, discusses his journey in architecture, the influence of art on his design process, and the importance of cultural context in architecture. Nelson shares his experiences integrating different artistic styles into his architectural work, the significance of understanding local cultures, and his aspirations for the future. The conversation emphasizes the role of experimentation and problem-solving in architecture and the intersection of art and architecture.
You can find Nelson Agalaba on LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/nelsonagalaba/ and his portfolio at https://issuu.com/nelsonksu/docs/nelson_agalaba_1. The project that we reference in the podcast is Interstice Factory.
I hope y'all enjoyed listening to the conversation!
Best,
Biancha
