Ever since I was a child, I’ve been captivated by the world of architecture. I remember spending hours sketching buildings and imagining the spaces within them. It was a love that only grew stronger as I got older.

When I was in university, my professor once told our class something that has stuck with me ever since. He said, “Only 1% of architecture graduates will become practicing architects.” At that moment, I realized the challenges that lay ahead. But it was what he said next that truly inspired me. He looked at me and said, “But you, you have something special. You possess qualities that the other 99% lack.”
