This page contains information regarding my career in architecture. I am currently taking the Architecture Registration Exam (ARE) and should be a licensed architect by fall 2009. I have been the Architectural Project Manager for church master planning and design at multiple architecture firms over the past several years.
Unless the Lord builds a house,
the work of the builder is useless. Unless the Lord Protects a city, guarding it with sentries will do no good. It is useless for you to work so hard from early in the morning until late at night, Anxiously working for food to eat; for God gives rest to His loved ones.
Auburn University CADC
My undergraduate alma mater. Auburn is a contagious place, so much so that I still call it home. AU offers a 5-year Bachelors Degree in architecture. AU's architecture program has repeatedly been ranked in the top 3-5 in the nation. The program has an excellent balance between the "Artsy" philosophies of some schools and the "pragmatic" approach of others..
LifeWay's Church Architecture Department
The LifeWay architecture services are extremely helpful for small-to-medium-sized churches. In my personal opinion, larger churches may want to seek services with a firm with more experience with the accoustical issues and technologies associated with large-capacity facilities. Also, would anyone like to challenge CA to develop master-plans that are outward-focused--designed to invite the community inward? It seems like most churches are becoming "Fort God," closing in away from the community. (The church I currently attend is guilty as charged.)
