Episode 013: Architecture, And: Entrepreneurship

How are individuals using their training in architecture to explore diverse career paths?

Guest: 

Moe Amaya, Co-Founder of Monograph

Moe Amaya is the Co-Founder of Monograph, a San Francisco-based software company revolutionizing the future in how architectural projects are managed. Born in Arizona, Amaya discovered his passion for design and technology at an early age. Building a bridge between his technological and creative sides, Amaya pursues his career with innovation, organization, and enthusiasm.

While garnering in-depth experience in building tools for startups and architecture firms, and expertise in custom content management systems, Amaya discovered a void for an intuitive cloud-based project management application that was tailored to the industry. He co-founded Monograph with the mission to help architects and engineers oversee projects in an integrated, user-friendly, and ever-evolving interface.

Amaya graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Design from Arizona State University and a Masters of Architecture in Computation from Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where he gained profound experience as a frontend engineer. Upon graduation, Amaya, along with his roommate, Alex Dixon, started a digital agency building websites and interactive tools for architects. Soon after meeting Robert Yuen, the three collaborated and formally became partners at Dixon & Moe – the agency from which Monograph was born.

Learn more about Monograph:

Founded in 2019, Monograph offers firm management software designed to help architects and engineers oversee projects, timesheets, and forecasts in one, integrated and simple interface. The software is deeply rooted in the founders’ experiences in building tools for architecture firms, where they noticed a recurring challenge—architects and project managers were discontent with their existing and non-existent management software. Seeing this void for a simple cloud-based project management application, the co-founders set out to create Monograph, the solution for architects, designers, and engineers to manage their firms more effectively and transparently. As the creators of a software designed by architects for architects, their company is on a mission to empower and arm the professionals who create our buildings and cities with better tools.
