Abbey Miller, BFA Fine Arts ’20, and Analia Segal, adjunct professor (CCE), on mentorship across time and career changes
“As a student, I always knew education would be part of my career path.”
Letter from the President
“I’m lucky to work in a profession where I directly hire my collaborators.”
“I started to understand that there was no right or wrong way to read your work to people, you just do it your way.”
“I have three words of advice for up-and-coming creatives: Find a mentor.”
“Sometimes it’s not just about the work. Sometimes it’s about how someone lives their life around it.”
“Mentorship has become one of my primary responsibilities—to help foster a sense of optimism and positive contribution while developing a strong purpose and voice in our evolving architectural industry.”
“Success is subjective. Know exactly what you want from the work and what you want the work to do for you. Know the experience you want to have in creating the work.”
“The best mentors recognize the unrealized talent of an individual and encourage it.”
