And last but not least, let's hear from our final DIG Summer Intern James Jackman, who joined us as an Architectural Intern this past June! 👋 A Rutgers Preparatory School graduate, he is currently enrolled in the integrated B.S. + Master of Architectural Design & Technology program at the University of Hartford, focusing on thoughtful, environmentally responsive design.
James shared the following about his time at the firm...💭
"My internship with DIG Architecture this summer has been an amazing experience. I learned how to collaborate on projects and what it means to be part of an architectural team. One thing that I love about DIG is that I gained hands-on experience. By doing so, I feel that I have vastly improved my technical skills.
Another great part of the community and culture at DIG is the focus on learning and growing. During my internship, every Wednesday, the firm held a Summer Technology Series. During this series, a variety of architecture-related software were introduced and demonstrated how they can be applied to both personal and professional work. I liked these meetings because they provided an environment where I could ask questions and learn as much as I could about the software. Not only was it a way to increase our knowledge of software, but it was a good way to bond as team.
Overall, my internship at DIG has been invaluable and has given me the opportunity to gain real world experience working on an architectural team, while catering to my individual growth. I look forward to taking what I learned from DIG into the upcoming school year."
Thanks for spending your summer with us, James! ☀️
