Gratitude: 2023 Summer internship experience at David Sisson Architecture

We are always sad to see our Summer interns return to school, though we always hope to see our flock return in the future! This year we were grateful to have University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign Masters of Architecture candidate, Maitri Savani, helping our team and learning a lot in the office and on job sites. It is always meaningful to know they get a lot out of the experience as well and we are thankful Maitri shared her thoughts: 

"I am thrilled to reflect on an incredible summer spent as an intern at David Sisson Architecture. The journey has been both a tremendous learning experience and an absolute blast! 

Throughout these months, I had the privilege of working alongside a brilliant team of architects and designers who were not only passionate about their craft but also incredibly supportive in guiding me through the intricacies of the field. Their mentorship has truly enriched my understanding of architecture and its real-world applications.

A special shoutout to Dave Sisson, Stephen Dargo, Abd Soufan and Karina Nurumova: your unwavering support and guidance have been instrumental in making this internship an unforgettable one. Your insights and willingness to share your expertise have greatly contributed to my growth during this time.

From collaborating on exciting projects to witnessing the architectural process firsthand, every day at David Sisson Architecture was a step forward in my professional journey. The dynamic environment, coupled with the team's camaraderie, made the experience not only educational but also immensely enjoyable.

As I wrap up this chapter and head back to my academic pursuits, I am grateful for the friendships formed, the knowledge gained, and the memories created. Here's to the countless sketches, design discussions, and laughter-filled lunch breaks that made this summer truly remarkable."

Thank you, Maitri! We hope to see you back with the team soon!
