September travels_Fordham University

October 22, 2017

This September I travelled East to New York and re-connected with some of the most awesome ladies I know, my old college roommates. We hadn't been back to Fordham University, where we had graduated in 1992, since 2005. This first photo is all 4 of us from both of those visits, two of us 7 months pregnant in that 2005 photo. No visit to Fordham is complete without lunch in Little Italy of the Bronx, which is directly outside of the university's southern entrance. A broccoli rabe and chicken cutlet sandwich followed by a cannoli, stuffed as you watch with sweet ricotta cheese - yes, please!

I'm an architect & writer based in Portland, Oregon. I'm passionate about broadcasting the value of design and established  Y/Wd in 2012 as a design resource with a mission to connect, create & communicate. 

I design spaces both large & small. I'm a list maker, researcher & a card-carrying introvert. I relish problem solving & finding the perfect fit. I'm a fan of process and storytelling - finding connections between seemingly random ideas is my super power!  

Life is full of daily doses of inspiration, I'm happy to share a bit with you. ---- Jen
