\"Christian<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Degree: B.A. in Architecture
Graduation Year: 2027
Hometown: Marion, NC<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How did you first get interested in architecture?<\/strong>
I first became interested in architecture as a kid when I would watch TV shows about ancient architecture and abandoned buildings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What kind of career do you hope to have<\/strong>?
I hope to attend graduate school and become a licensed architect, but I am also interested in pursuing environmental architecture and sustainable building technologies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is your favorite thing about the College of Arts + Architecture?<\/strong>
I love how connected the community feels. I’m in the Arts and Architecture Honors Program, and it’s nice to see people of different majors within the college come together for honors seminars and be engaged with the teachings of a specific discipline. It’s nice to see how collaboration between majors can bring different perspectives to an experience, even within the same college.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do you participate in any community activities or work in the Charlotte arts community?<\/strong>
I participate in the UNC Charlotte Symphonic Band where I play clarinet. I have been involved in band since middle school and music has always been a passion of mine, so it’s nice that I’ve been able to continue this in college and in a new environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What are the benefits of your scholarship?<\/strong>
I’ve received the AAHP scholarship for my enrollment in the program, which has allowed me the opportunity to focus on my Architecture and Honors Program assignments with less worry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you are not in class, studying, or working, what do you like to do for fun?<\/strong>
Outside of class, I like to hang out with friends, go out to eat, play video games, and practice my instrument. I also enjoy visiting art museums and going to Carowinds!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
