New member so forgive me as I gather connections and references!

I'm currently pursuing a Master's in Landscape Architecture, with a deep interested in how humans interact with their environment. Much of our modern infrastructure is designed to be resilient or defensive towards surrounding physical and natural processes, rather than in coordination with them. It is my goal to reimagine that relationship.

Also, some day I'd like to open a sports bar with tons of TVs, but instead of sports it's just nature documentaries. Nature documentaries and pizza.

This is what my eyes look for:
