“Careers on the Rise: Three Award-Winning Young Architects discuss their Paths to Success” – The AIA Chicago Foundation and Chicago Women in Architecture hosted a panel discussion featuring the three most recent Dubin Family Young Architect Award winners. Moderated by Matthew Dumich, AIA of Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill Architecture, Chris-Annmarie Spencer, Nootan Bharani, and April Hughes discussed their career choices and perspectives on their paths to success.

AIA Chicago’s Young Architect Award was established in 1983 to recognize excellence in ability and exceptional contributions by Chicago area architects between the ages of twenty-five and thirty-nine. In 2003, the Young Architect Award was renamed the Dubin Family Young Architect Award. Thanks to the generosity of the late M. David Dubin, FAIA, his family and friends, this award has been endowed with a cash prize. The award is administered by the AIA Chicago Foundation.
