JobSpeakers

"Most people don't realize that architecture is a team sport," says this week's guest, Steve Burgos, who demystifies this highly romanticized profession from all angles: drawing designs, managing budgets, inspecting construction, brushing up on building codes, communicating with clients, and more. Designing and managing projects ranging from solariums on residential homes to resorts in northern Egypt, Steve covers the different stages of an architect's career, explains where he spends his time, emphasizes the hard work behind every structure, shares what makes him proud about what he does, and lays out his journey from being a little guy who wanted to draw for comic books to a successful Chicago architect.
