About
Life is more interesting when we don't know what our day will look like. This happens when we open ourselves up to the opportunity for spontaneity. However, this isn't all on us. When opportunities for unplanned encounters are sparse, we must look to the infrastructure through which our lives happen. What is causing this rigidity?
People love college because there are so many opportunities to run into people, learn about and get involved with events, and feel a sense of community. The barrier to entry is very low when you're on foot within a close proximity to others. By taking inspiration from university design, as well as other ways cities have been planned historically, I believe we can fundamentally rethink the way everyday life happens, post graduation, be it college, high school, etc.
I graduated from Grand Canyon University in 2021 with my Bachelors in Finance and am heading back to school to study urban planning.
