Young Architect Podcast: An Audible Guide to Life for Emerging Architects

Welcome to the very first episode of the Young Architect Podcast!

The Young Architect website was created in 2014 when Michael Riscica began blogging about his experience of architecture school and taking the Architect Registration Examinations (AREs). Over the course of time, Young Architect has evolved and grown to include resources such as the ARE Bootcamp to help young, aspiring architects study for the AREs and begin their careers.

Now, Young Architect is expanding once more to include a new medium on the website: Podcasts. Riscica decided to begin the Young Architect Podcast so that he could share conversations with architects of different backgrounds, careers and experiences rather than just writing about them.

In the opening episode, Riscica talks about his experiences in architectural education and his favorite method to learn while also touching on his passion for computers, drawing and research. He also reflects on his bike journey across the U.S. and what he learned about himself along the way as well as talks about his path through architecture school to practice and ultimately to where he is today.
