Panel Discussion: Practice + Family

  • ZOOM (RSVP for info) (map)

How do Yale alums working in architecture choreograph the demands of work and life? We are defining “family” broadly here - how do architects take care to have a personal life, one that sometimes includes responsibilities for children or for aging parents, while pursuing a career in architecture? Join our “Family + Practice” conversation.
