John Wason

Architecture Intern

John is a part of a professional development model that fosters design and construction career pathways known as the Apprentice Academy.  This program provides participants with actual projects to integrate purposefully applied academics with real-world practice experiences.  These experiences are structured in a sequential way that accelerates their pathway concurrently with their secondary and post-secondary academic tracks.  John is one of eight high school interns from the Ralston, District 66, Omaha Public or Millard Public school districts.

We at BCDM are happy to add him to the Apprentice Academy and BCDM this summer.

How did you become interested in this field?
I’ve been interested in architecture since I was a kid. I always found it fascinating and a tangible way to express myself. I also get excited about the possibility of helping others through designing spaces.

What inspires you?
I find my personal goals are a big part of what drives me and inspire me every day. I believe there is a sense of purpose and guidance in my life when I set goals for myself.
