i'm moving to dc the beginning of MAY!

it's official - i got an internship with fox architects in mclean, va - which is a mere 20 minutes from washington d.c. and 15 minutes from my boyfriend's house in arlington, va. i love love LOVE this company and am so excited to intern with them this summer! 




fox offers commercial design and designs the core and the interior of buildings. fox architects has done everything from corporate, headquarters, government, legal, non-profit, and academic. 




i visited the office when i was visiting bryce for my spring break, and i LOVED it. i loved the energy, the ambiance and everyone who i met that works there. the office had an open layout, and was geared towards teamwork, which i like a lot. i met with the director of the interiors studio at fox architects, who took me around the office and introduced me to people. i met with an auburn grad, who is one of the interior designers at fox, which instantly made me feel at home. 


this summer i'll be shadowing many of the interior designers, as well as sitting in on meetings, helping with the resource room, helping with components on revit, drafting up buildings in revit and also, hopefully, learning as much as i can about commercial design! 








i am so excited for may 8th to come so i can move to washington d.c. for the summer, have a wonderful internship and a great break from auburn :) hopefully this will give me the energy to finish up the 2 semesters i have left in auburn and get into the corporate workforce!


check back come may about my time spent with fox!
