#01: Hey everyone, Tyler Suomala here, your host of the Growthitect podcast. In this episode, I’m excited to introduce you to Alexander Buckeridge, an architect based in NYC who’s taking the bold step of starting his own firm.

Alexander’s journey is incredibly inspiring. He’s worked at some of the most notable architecture firms in both Europe and the U.S., and now he’s venturing out on his own. We dive into some key topics that I think you'll find really valuable, like how to balance design with business management, the importance of having clear mission and vision statements (and how to not let them slow you down), and effective strategies for positioning a new firm in a competitive market.

Alexander’s diverse experiences and strategic approach are full of lessons for anyone looking to establish their own practice. So, tune in and get ready to be inspired by his story!
