Julia Gamolina on Breaking the Architect's Mold

Julia is many things. Woman. Immigrant. Architect. Writer.
Cornell Graduate. Director of Strategy at Trahan Architects.
Founder and Editor-in-Chief of Madame Architect. The latter is
her brainchild and arguably her most well-known work; an online
magazine about, by, and for the women that shape the built
environment. What is so special about the work she is doing with
Madame Architect? Her commitment is to profile women in all
stages of their careers, who break the mold of what an architect
is, and create space for more diversity in the field. 


She breaks that mold, too. She’s applied her knack for writing
and expertise in architecture along with her inquisitive nature
and ability to connect with people to build a platform that has
now interviewed over 150 architects and designers, as well as
CEOs, publicists, journalists, business strategists, and more.
She is also the Director of Strategy of the up-and-coming Trahan
Architects.  


A rising tide that raises all ships—Julia’s efforts in building a
culture of community and collaboration give these diverse
stories, perspectives, and the women they belong to a seat at the
table.
