Architect and developer
Hi all,
Any other architect-turned-developers out there? I would love to hear about what you're doing!

@Rafael Pinho
As a developer with over 55 years of experience, I worked with exactly one architect that was fully versed on the development process.
That architect was able to provide me with extraordinary service that saved me time and money
Know it or not, architects are more than 1/2 way there in terms of gaining the literacy and skills needed to execute a ground up project.
Any architect that is interested in becoming a developer and or providing their developer clients with superior services is highly encouraged to pursue their intent.
