He plans to go into a master\u2019s program in architecture after graduation and fuse his current urban planning minor with his UX experience to be an unstoppable force in the building world.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>\u201cThere\u2019s a lot of correlations between UX and architecture\u2026with UX, we\u2019re thinking about how a user is going to interact with it and how to tailor the experience towards them\u2026with any building you\u2019re designing, you\u2019re thinking about the people who are going to inhabit it, and who are going to actually use it on a day-to-day basis.\u201d\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One aspect of Jake\u2019s personality that truly flows into any area of his life is his appreciation of his peer\u2019s skills. Whether it\u2019s differing opinions or a friend\u2019s crafting skills, Jake is right there to appreciate and slip into the shoes of a stranger to better understand their frame of mind.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>\u201cYou can disagree with any form of art, but I feel like when you do the research or think about it from the artist\u2019s perspective, or even just from someone else\u2019s perspective, you gain that different appreciation of it.\u201d\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The overwhelming positivity, resourcefulness, and curiosity Jake brings to the table is almost unmatched, always finding inspiration in every corner. <strong>\u201cI love asking people for help or hearing their own insight, their own take on something.
