Welcome to the first edition of ADDDitive!

I'm excited to share this curated collection of digital design resources that I've been gathering to help you navigate the increasingly complex technological landscape we all face as architects and designers.

From new marketplace tools to strategic services, upcoming events where we can connect in person, and specialized workflows that could transform your practice—I've focused on actionable intelligence that addresses the real challenges I see practices struggling with every day.

As someone deeply embedded in both the architectural and technology worlds, I'm passionate about bridging these realms to help you build not just better projects, but a more resilient, innovative practice for the future. I hope you'll find something valuable here to implement right away.
