Meet NDC: Our interns
Although an old cliche, teamwork (does indeed) make the dream work. Historically speaking, the majority of the NDC team has consisted of student interns from varying design and design-related fields. Employing student interns aligns with the mission of the NDC, by inserting young minds into the process of creative solutions, exposing students to real world constraints and empowering clients to consider alternative ideas.
Currently, the NDC employs five students from varying departments within the Knowlton School of Architecture at The Ohio State University. Meet them below!
ADEEBA ARASTU // Architecture
Adeeba Arastu is an undergraduate architecture student and the President of the student chapter of NOMA at The Ohio State University. She is an avid traveler and is passionate about design as a tool for social justice. In her free time, Adeeba enjoys rock climbing and looking at pictures of guinea pigs.
VERA BETANCOURT // Architecture
Vera Betancourt is an undergraduate architecture student. She is a food enthusiast, who loves to travel and learn about different cultures. In her free time she likes to practice yoga and cook. She has a strong interest in sustainable Architecture. She believes that architecture is for the people.
