“Winning  this  2x8  scholarship  is  fantastic,  it  was  very  unexpected.  It  was  a  very  simple  
project  and  we  worked  really  hard  to  get  the  complexity  of  the  design  to  be  simple  and  
I  think  that  clarity  came  through.  It  feels  good  to  get  started  on  a  high  note  and  have  a  
little  motivation  before  grad  school!”

“Winning  the  scholarship  will  help  me  further  my  career,  in  one  way,  monetarily  by  
helping  me  pay  for  grad  school  applications.  But  also  by  getting  my  name  out  there  
and  having  a  presentation  at  the  A+D  Museum…which  is  a  pretty  big  thing.”
