Excited to share my conversation with Will McCollum and Matthew Marshall, co-founders of @Citymakers__ Collective, about their incredible 2-week summer studio happening this July in Charleston.

The program is designed for students and young professionals in architecture, planning, and development who are passionate about building more beautiful, resilient, and thriving cities for people.

What makes this studio special?

1. A hands-on, experiential approach to learning.

2. World-class practitioners sharing their expertise.

3. A holistic vision inspired by the question: What do we wish we had known in our twenties to create an outsized impact on our life and career?

If you're a student or young professional looking to grow your skills, connect with industry leaders, and contribute to shaping the future of our built environment, I highly recommend you check this out.
