What's it like to work in architecture? In this podcast episode, join Jeff and Katharine backstage to reflect on a conversation that we had on https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLED5hT2c0oNJSkvckPLVWTp28x756MUwA (Context & Clarity LIVE), https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=URZJMD_Hpqc (Panel Discussion - How to Be in an Office). On March 25th, SCI-Arc hosted a panel discussion titled “How to be in an office.” We think the topic deserves a better conversation. Michael Riscica is the Founder of Young Architect, Rachel Gresham is an Associate at TMPartners, and Mike Celauro is Department Manager at Summit Design and Engineering Services. In the original conversation, Michael, Rachel, and Mike talk about working in architecture. If you enjoy this show, you can find similar content at https://gablmedia.com/ (Gābl Media).

Midst July after hosting a room on Clubhouse I was invited to join Michael Riscica on his podcast to talk about life, the Architecture Industry and building the Architecture Social. Here is the description from the episode:Some people take a long and winding route to realize that architecture is the field for them. Stephen Drew is not one of them. He always knew that he wanted to be an architect. He did temporarily entertain the idea of becoming a doctor, but his love for drawing and designing won out. Even his friends always assumed that he would become an architect. Stephen was passionate about graphic design and geography, which is an unusual combination. He went to the University of Westminster – that was his first time in London. He graduated into the global economic crisis and was worried about finding a job. Encouraged by a friend (who is now a famous You Tuber), he sent out a large number of CVs and ended up landing a job in a top firm as his first job.In today's episode, Stephen talks about his experience working in recruiting for architecture firms. He explains what architects need to understand about recruiters and also talks about the ins and outs of finding a job as an architect. Stephen also discusses the project that he started during the pandemic, Architecture Social. He explains what it is, how it started, and why it's interesting to young architects. Listen in to hear Stephen's thoughts on the word community, what he thinks about the Clubhouse app, and his advice for architects applying for jobs. What You'll Hear on This Episode: What inspired Stephen to pursue a career in architectureWhere Stephen went to architecture schoolWhat happened after architecture schoolWhat Stephen is doing todayWhat the recruitment process looks like for StephenHow Stephen feels about doing recruitment workArchitecture SocialWhat Stephen thinks about ClubhouseThe use of the word communityStephen's advice for aspiring architectsWhat Stephen knows now that he didn't know thenThe book that changed everything for StephenStephen's favorite resource, product, or gadgetStephen's best time saving trickHow listeners can find StephenTop Three Takeaways from This Episode:It's important to understand the recruiter's role.Understand what community really means.Become a better version of yourself.Stephen's Advice for Aspiring Architects:“It always changes over time, but the things that I think are constant is that don't worry about whatever other people are doing but hold yourself accountable and keep pushing yourself.Favorite Quotes:“Don't doubt yourself too much.” – What Stephen knows now that he didn't know then.“A book that's been really helpful is How to Win Friends and Influence People.” –The book that changed everything for Stephen “I would love to say it's not a mobile phone, but the mobile phone is both a blessing and a curse.” –Stephen on his favorite resource, product, or gadget“I'm not a list person, OK?

I had the chance to be a guest on The Young Architects Podcast with Michael Riscica awhile back. We talked about what it means to be a young design professional and how to get ahead in an industry that is steeped in tradition. Check out a link to the original show notes.Enjoy!

Entrepreneurship is alive and well and Michael Riscica is here to prove it! Michael completely bootstrapped his business from scratch, starting it as a side-hustle while working full time as a licensed architect.

Today's guest proves you don't have to know what your dream career is when you're still in school. Michael Riscica struggled with school - in his own words he was a special ed student - and he didn't have a plan for graduation. In fact, he just barely graduated high school. But a chance job at an interior design company helped him realize that he actually had great problem solving skills. A coworker encouraged him to pursue architecture, and after an insane amount of hard work and studying for the notorious industry exams, he finally qualified as a licensed architect. After a stint working for the City of Portland and in his own practice, he now helps to train the next generation of architects. In this conversation, Michael and I chat about what the different niches are within architecture and how to pick the right one, what the day-to-day is really like and what makes a good architect.

In this episode we were very lucky to have Michael Riscica from Young Architect in studio to discuss all the things that architects do to make sure a real estate project stays on track. Our eyes were opened to all the different things that go into a project that we thought were handled by other professions. It's not just all about coming up with beautiful and creative projects. It's about managing the permits, project management, construction, & much more! We also dive deep into how Michael helps architects pass their exams For more information: https://youngarchitect.com/ You can connect with Michael on Social Media here: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/YoungArchitxPDX/ IG: https://www.instagram.com/youngarchitect/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-riscica-aia-6a752b36 This week's giveaway: The War of Art by Steven Pressfield  A beautiful book about the creative process and the creative struggle.

Co-founders of Let's Fix Construction, Eric D. Lussier and Cherise Lakeside, host the latest episode and start talking about the Summer construction season Summers as a contractor, as Eric's company is, is typically filled with project management and the physical construction of a building. However, this Summer of 2018 was filled with a heavy bidding climate for Eric, as well as many other contractors that he spoke with. Cherise, in contrast, who works in a design studio, found that 2018 has found that projects are not bidding when they would typically bid. Owners are looking for alternative methods to save money and get their projects built, including looking for alternative schedule to build. As a finish trade, Eric bemoans how the construction schedule typically squeezes the Division 9 contractors, especially the flooring guy, who are forced to work with other trades in the room in sub-par conditions such as non-weather tight rooms or with HVACs not running. The skilled labor workforce is discussed briefly as Eric spoke to a large Northeast General Contractor who is tackling not one, but two large projects in Burlington, Vermont. They presently don't envision having a labor problem themselves, but they do foresee that many of their specialty subcontractors will have issues staffing their work. The wages are out there, especially on prevailing wage projects. Turning the page on the Summer, Fall is quickly approaching. Typically in September, CSI's annual convention and affiliated tradeshow, CONSTRUCT is held. Eric and Cherise met at CONSTRUCT in Phoenix in 2012 and then went on to attend Nashville in 2013, Baltimore in 2014, St. Louis in 2015, Austin in 2016 and Providence in 2017. This year CONSTRUCT moves to October 3rd to the 5th in Long Beach, California and is coming up in just two short weeks. As Eric and Cherise outlined previously on the Let's Fix Construction blog, they find themselves quite busy in 2018: http://www.letsfixconstruction.com/blog/knowledge-innovation-collaboration-construct-2018 A new presentation debuts in 2018 for Eric and Cherise, titled 'Facing Danger: Public Speaking for Non-Public Speakers' and Eric wrote the concept for this session around Cherise's public speaking career, which launched at CONSTRUCT in Nashville five years ago. You can read more about the CONSTRUCT session here: https://explore.constructshow.com/Attendee/Schedule/SessionDetails/254418 The next presention hosted at CONSTRUCT will be the flagship presentation, 'Let's Fix Construction: An Interactive, Problem Solving Workshop'. CONSTRUCT in 2017 hosted an abbreviated version of this workshop, with about 150 attendees in 45 minutes. Being given twice the amount of time in 2018, many interesting conversations will be held about hot-button issues in the industry, and given the opportunity to talk to other disciplines outside of the contract, open conversations are typically held and enjoyed. In this year's Luncheon session is the 'Archispeak Interactive Luncheon: Real Talk About Challenges, Opportunities & Innovations Surrounding AEC Teams' hosted by Evan Troxel, Neal Pann, and Cormac Phalen. Cherise met Evan, Neal and Cormac through Twitter a handful of years ago and as a member of the CONSTRUCT Education Advisory Council, Cherise offered their name to speak at CONSTRUCT. You can check out their podcast at https://archispeakpodcast.com/ and more on the session at https://explore.constructshow.com/Attendee/Schedule/SessionDetails/254314 Cherise hosts the fourth annual Young Professionals Program on Wednesday, October 3rd, which was built for those 35 and under to provide the attendees with the training, networking, mentoring, and education that they need to boost their careers to the next level. The core session of YP Day is the two hour speed mentoring session where the attendees will meet one on one with leaders in the industry. Each party takes turns to learn more about their career paths, challenges they have overcome, and advice they have for each other. There is still time to attend YP Day at a discounted rate. Check out www.CONSTRUCTshow.com/YPday for more details on the schedule. The last CONSTRUCT 2018 session that Cherise is involved in is the 'POWER PANEL--Millennials as Successors: Misconceptions & Realities - Hear it from them!' Joined by Michael Riscica (aka Young Architect), Cam Featherstonhaugh, Kyhla Pollard and Tiffany Coppock on stage, Cherise is hoping to dispel some commonly held beliefs about their generation and what they want for the future of the industry. Read more about this panel at https://explore.constructshow.com/Attendee/Schedule/SessionDetails/254580 Thursday night, October 4th will be the second annual Partners and Pints event with our friends at Clark Dietrich.

https://entrearchitect.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/unnamed-3.jpg ()The Pain, the Passion, and the Process of Becoming a Young Architect Let’s dive deep into what it means to be a young architect and what it takes to get licensed. This week at EntreArchitect Podcast, Michael Riscica of http://YoungArchitect.com (YoungArchitect.com) shares The Pain, the Passion, and the Process of Becoming a Young Architect. Origin Story Michael is based in Portland, Oregon is the founder of http://YoungArchitect.com (YoungArchitect.com). You can hear more about his bike journey from one side of the US to the other, plus how to get licensed and pass the ARE, check out his https://entrearchitect.com/?p=10446 (last podcast appearance).   Young Architect Michael started Young Architect about three years ago after he got his license, with inspiration from Mark and many other bloggers serving their community. The mission has always been to help students, ARE candidates, young architects and other candidates be more successful. More recently he’s been talking more about how to share his mission and beliefs with others. Many young architects really need to be their own advocate, and, in Michael’s opinion, a lot of students graduate and flounder until they become a licensed architect. Although there’s a lot out there to create community with the AIA and other organizations, there’s an in-between stage that Michael wanted to address. He began writing blog posts clearly directed at those in different predicaments like looking for jobs, studying for the ARE and wanting to get licensed. Everyone has their own path, strengths and weaknesses, and the beautiful thing about architecture is that there’s such a huge place in jobs and opportunities with people with different strengths. Everyone has different gifts and passions to offer to the world. Different Roles Architecture school is a place for future architects to learn how to design and problem solve. It creates a safe place for students to experiment and take risk, while learning the fundamentals of design. They can learn to express themselves by learning from theory and from the past. Michael argues that so much growth and development needs to happen in architecture school, that having a complete understanding of how the profession works is too much to ask. You’re there to learn the basics of problem solving and design. The second part of an architect’s education begins once they finish school. He’s always believed that the young architect’s job is to advocate for their own development, but the profession as a whole should acknowledge their role in helping engender future architects. Although young architects may take an experience and learn from it and then move onto something else, that’s a necessary component of the process. Letting a younger intern person into your firm, acknowledges that, in some ways, they’re the future of the firm. They get to see the behind-the-scenes in the firm. In some ways, you need to treat the younger generation as though they may one day be your future client or even supervisor. On the other hand, young architects need to acknowledge the role they’re in: observing and learning to become the best that they can. You may not start out making what you want to make, but you can give everything you have to who you’re working with to get the knowledge you need to get to the next level. When you work hard and prove your value, you’re rewarded. Fluidity Like many other professions, architecture has moved into a space where people are not at one job for their entire lives. They may start somewhere, gain some knowledge, and then move on to something else. With advanced technology and greater connectivity, it’s easy to associate with people that aren’t in your local circle and do anything you want to do. Young Architect Podcast Michael...

https://entrearchitect.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Robot512x512.png ()The road to success is a long and bumpy ride. For us licensed architects, we all dealt with the challenge of passing the Architect Registration Exam. For those of you studying to pass the ARE today, you’re working through that challenge right now. This week at EntreArchitect Podcast, Mark R. LePage discusses How to Pass the Architect Registration Exam with Michael Riscica. As a creative child, Michael loved to draw, build model cars and create. After high school, he landed a job with an interior design school that told him he could have it if he learned CAD. He followed that with a few community college classes, and then attended the Boston Architecture College (BAC) at night while he worked full time. When he moved to Long Island, he finished his degree at the New York Institute of Technology (NYIY). During this time, he traveled and participated in various extracurricular activities. Where school previously hadn’t been one of his strong suits, the design studios in architecture school brought a passion where he realized he could have a career as an architect.  While living in Boston, he fell deeply in love with cycling and began researching to complete a 400 mile bike ride from Boston to New York. In 2005, his dream of cycling across America was born and achieved when he rode from Virginia to Washington. In 2006, he hiked the Appalachian Trail for several weeks.  After graduating in 2007, he made another trip across the US with a group of friends and decided to stay in Portland, where he’s lived and worked ever since. He began studying for his AREs in 2009, and had to take a two-year break because he was so burned out and exhausted. When he got back into it, he checked out for the entire year of 2013 and did almost nothing but studying and taking the exams, successfully receiving his license at the end of that year. With no room for creativity in the past few years of studying, he felt like he needed a new creative project: writing a blog for young architects. He put full effort into http://youngarchitect.com (Young Architect), sharing study successes, failure stories and the experience of going through the AREs. When several of his articles went viral, he used some content to write How to Pass the Architecture Registration Exam. With a lot of inquiries to help others get ready for their exams, he created the ARE Bootcamp to fill the gap between architecture school and preparing for the exam itself. In the ARE Bootcamp, small groups gather weekly  for 10 weeks to move through a syllabus of what to study, how to recall the necessary information, and figuring out how to get up to speed to study for the exam. Once you take the program, you’re in the community forever. Michael’s been running the current ARE Bootcamp on his latest tour where he’s racked up 2800 miles in the last 50 days since the Philadelphia AIA Convention. He’ll be in Portland sometime soon to connect with the https://worlddominationsummit.com/schedule (World Domination Summit), a conference for creative people who are doing various projects to change the world.
