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.
