SUMMARY:THE HUMAN BEHIND THE ARCHITECT
DESCRIPTION:AIA|LA & SoCal NOMA Present…\nTHE HUMAN BEHIND THE ARCHITECT: Series Kick-off\nStories have been used to share learning and knowledge for thousands of years. A good story engages our curiosity\, emotions\, and imagination. Stories take many forms\, but they usually have some elements in common. Rather than a list of dry facts\, stories have a narrative or sequence that introduces people or characters.\nAIA|LA & SoCal NOMA J.E.D.I. committee invites you to join “The Human Behind the Architect” series to listen to the journey of four local architects. This is not an architectural conversation. Speakers will dive deeper into their journey telling us the challenges that made them the person who they are today.\nWe respond to stories\, particularly when there is emotional detail\, and remember information given in story form much more vividly.  The mission of the J.E.D.I. Committee is to advance issues of justice\, equity\, diversity\, and inclusion in the architecture industry\, and these anecdotes are foundational as we weave the fibers of all of our stories to build the fabric of our field.\n\nWhy attend? \n\nConnect with the human side of architecture.\nDiscover the stories behind the cityscapes you know.\nGain a deeper appreciation for the design process.\nBe inspired by the journeys of fellow creatives.\n\n\n  \n\nSPEAKERS:\n\nAdaeze Cadet\, AIA\, NOMA – Sr. Principal & Design Principal\, HOK\nMichael H.
