Hey guys, what’s up. Let me tell you about myself. Born and raised in Washington, DC to Trinidadian parents. I grew up in Tyler House on the corner of North Capitol Street and New York Ave. You can’t miss it if you’re driving down to DC from 295/Baltimore|Washington Parkway. My fam moved out of Tyler House when I was 16 (I think). Graduated from High School (SWW) and began my architecture journey to college.
