NAF Internship With UWM School of Architecture and Urban Planning
At the beginning of summer 2023 I participated in a 2 week long internship with NAF and the UWM School of Architecture and Urban Planning. There we learned college readiness, as well as architecture, planning projects, working with clients, and using woodworking tools. The overall use of our time was working to create a pocket park for the community. To do this we worked with UWM Professors, Community representatives, and professional architects to design a sort of bench-like seating area for the park. We also got to experience a bit of college life, staying in the UWM dorms and eating in the cafeteria as well as being able to explore campus.
