This is the sixteenth recorded episode of The Broke Architect Podcast brought to you by the Global Architect Alliance (GAA).
In this episode I talk to American architect Sophia Panova who is Principal of SO-ZHA Architects located in Boston, Massachusetts. Sophia is originally from Bucket in Kazakhstan but emigrated to Canada at the age of eight. Sophia won a place at Harvard University for her Masters in Architecture and went to work for a prestigious architects practice in Boston. Sophia then became a mother and things changed. We talk about running a practice and juggling time as a mother. We discuss the cost of attending Harvard and how Sophia funded this, we talk healthcare insurance, EDI and the barriers to working in the profession as a woman.
