Hey there, I’m William! I’m a current 5th year architecture undergrad student and graduate student of Landscape Architecture at Mississippi State University. The JCDC is the perfect place to combine my passion for user-driven design, architecture & planning, and giving back to the community. During my architecture education, I discovered and researched participatory design and how it not only has the power to elevate communities and people but enhance the effectiveness of design as well. Through the great work happening with the JCDC, I’m hoping to contribute to some positive change for the people of Jackson.
