I am very thankful for attending ACE and being able to learn and receive knowledge and wisdom from the program. I really enjoyed being able to go to the construction site in Millville to see the blueprint plans and how the Millville Library was going to be built. It was amazing to see the work in progress from start to finish. Truly amazing.

ACE has opened so many amazing new opportunities to me that I never imagined was possible before, and truly solidified my decision to pursue architecture as a profession. I have gained a much deeper understanding of how the architecture and adjacent industries work and what they can impact thanks to my ACE mentors, who I will always be so thankful for.
