YAA is by far my favorite platform
YAA is such a great set up because even though architecture school you’re not in studio alone. Using this program, brings you with like minded people in the same platform to share information, educate each other, and work together towards the same goal. The program is full of information but you still have to put in the work! When you want to talk to someone, 9/10 chances Micheal himself, who started it, takes the time to talk to you! On the phone, via email, or even over video. I don’t know many programs that the owner himself will call you and teach you. I’ve done other platforms and this one is my favorite. By far.

Kristen, the studio comparison is spot on. Nobody got through architecture school alone and the ARE shouldn't be any different. You also said the thing that matters most: the program is full of information but you still have to put in the work. That's true no matter which platform someone picks, and you've been putting in that work consistently. Really enjoyed our call. We've got a solid plan for the rest of the year and I'm excited to get you into the technical side. Keep going. You've made more progress than you probably give yourself credit for.
