Today, we’ll hear from a recent graduate who just began her career at Gensler.  If you think there is nothing to learn from a student, you are about to be turned upside down.  Sofia Acosta is as wise, collected, and clear-headed as anyone we’ve interviewed on the podcast so far.  

Sofia graduated in May 2021 from Kansas State’s 5-year master's program in Interior Architecture and Industrial Design.  Even more impressive is her humble nature and urgent passion for sustainability. Sofia is the perfect example of the bright, passionate youth that will be the change in the planet that we know we need… We just need to give them the stage and allow them to lead.
