The Immigrant Architects Coalition was created by Graciela Carrillo, Shahad Sadeq, and Yu-Ngok Lo to create a community that offers mentorship, advice, and valuable resources to our fellow immigrant designers/architects. This book is the first step in achieving that mission. Twenty-four immigrant professionals share their experiences as firm owners, American Institute of Architects leaders, and entrepreneurs. The stories shared in this book portray a common path in their journey to achieve a successful and meaningful career in the U.S
