On today’s episode of Architectette I am delighted to welcome Erin Alley. Erin is an Associate Principal Partner at RMW and is based in their San Francisco Office. Erin and I worked together on several projects during my tenure at RMW and I was so happy to interview her so listeners can learn more about her career journey and experiences. Erin is an outstanding project manager, studio leader, and mentor. We talk about:   - Erin’s start in architecture and how she ended up working on the client side of the industry at Gap.  - Work-life balance, motherhood, career coaches, and the importance of getting licensed.   - Erin’s leadership at Gensler and later, RMW. She shares tips for supporting clients, connecting with colleagues, and maintaining a healthy, engaging work environment. - Erin’s backyard Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) which her family designed for her dad. - Erin’s hopes for the future and how she is working at RMW to embrace emerging design technologies and increase diversity in the profession.  Links: Follow Erin on Instagram for ADU updates: https://www.instagram.com/cutwoodhomes/ RMW: https://rmw.com/ RMW’s new San Francisco Offices: https://rmw.com/rmw-san-francisco-designed-for-hybrid/ Gap HQ: https://mcdonoughpartners.com/projects/901-cherry-offices/ NCARB Removes the Rolling Clock: https://www.ncarb.org/press/ncarb-eliminates-the-are-rolling-clock-policy-0
