Rice.jpg">She is the daughter of an economist inspired by an advocate St. Louis architect at the age of 15. This week's guest on the Entrepreneur Architect Podcast climbed her way up through the profession, making a difference every step of the way. She's an instructor at Boston Architectural College, an associate at Cambridge Seven Associates and the 2014 President of the Boston Society of Architects. She's married to a fellow architect and Mom” to 2 kids.

This week on the podcast, I am honored to have had a wonderful conversation with a very inspiring woman, architect Emily Grandstaff-Rice.

We talked about her journey to become an architect, the many influences on her career, her thoughts about young architects entering the profession and where she thinks the profession may be 20 years from now.

I hope you enjoy this episode. I certainly did. I think Emily and I are kindred spirits. Secure your ear buds. You won't want to miss one second of this show.
