Hey everyone!
My name is Bryant Phares II. I am currently a 2nd year Architecture major here at OSU. I was born and raised here in Columbus and since 10th grade have been taking classes at OSU. Both of my parents are from West Virginia and they grew up drown the street from each other. I have just one other sibling, a younger sister, who will be start college this semester at Columbus State Community College. Currently I work at the Milo-Grogan Boys and Girls Club with kids ranging in ages from 5 to 18, however mostly with 12 to 18 year olds. I enjoy my job a lot because it’s like being a kid again sometimes. Also working with the kids gives me this great feeling because I know I’m making a difference in their life.
I chose Architecture as my major because I love buildings. For as long a I can remember I have always had a fascination with buildings, mainly skyscrapers. I remember being in awe whenever I would travel through downtown as a kid. As I grew so did my interest in taller structures and more complex designs.
I am really looking forward to going to Chile because first and foremost, I have never left the country and can’t wait to finally travel abroad. While there I want to see what the culture is like. I am really excited about seeing the city and coming back home to tell my family about my travels.
