In Recognition of the Newly Licensed

2015’s Final Installment

The path to licensure is a long, arduous journey. The surface is only touched when one graduates from university—there is still the Intern Development Program (IDP) to complete; preparation for enduring the seven Architect Registration Examinations (ARE) , then of course passing the AREs. The pomp and circumstance march which traditionally accompanies a graduation ceremony normally signifies the end of a journey. In the case of the architect, it is only the beginning. In honor of those who have recently endured the process and are now licensed, the American Institute of Architects, California Council, (AIACC), recognizes those who have recently become licensed. “What a tremendous commitment these emerging professional have made. Whatever path they take in their professional lives, they will make an impact – from people’s homes, to their schools, in hospitals and places of worship, at work and at play – architects build communities and make them better for all of us,” said Jana Itzen, AIA, Vice President of the Academy of Emerging Professionals.

The AIACC would like to take a moment and direct your attention towards those who have earned their license so far this year. Below is the third installment of 2015.
