Thomas,
Terrific post! I think your wording and approach to my previous posts is sensitive and honest.
Thank you for that! I'm impressed with your candor.
Yes, call a spade a spade, until I complete the last remaining ARE's exams, I am still technically a
Designer. I do not consider that an ugly word. In fact, it may be a reason why people have felt less constrained in contacting me.
I bring a great deal of talent and a varied approach to my firm, as so many people in the profession do, and have I have been fortunate to enjoy a wide variety of projects as a result. I want to be able to design anything that may come across my desk, not just focus in on houses. Variety is the spice of life!
Wow, Thomas, I just appreciate your honesty. That is so refreshing!
I wish you, and all of us in this
design-recession, the best of luck! Thomas, if we could ever partner on a project, please, consider me interested in hearing from you.
PEACE,
-Tom
