Working on a variety of competitions helped me express my creativity in design which extended beyond the constraints of professional practice. This factor added exceptional value to my portfolio while I was applying for my master's programme.

Principal Architect, Atlas, Nairobi
After graduation I started working as a freelance architect, but I was not satisfied with the kind of projects as they were mostly small residences and interiors. I realised that taking part in competitions, I significantly expand the scope of my work.

For me as a young graduate, one way to be able to design an actual implementable project is through competitions. Sometimes I win and sometimes I lose, but I grow as a designer every time.
