Meet the Architecture for Humanity team: Saba Tekeste

saba-tekeske-bio-pic“When I completed my independent study in Brazil I felt I developed a responsibility to continue applying the techniques and sustainable development practices that I learned at a grassroots level. I joined the Architecture for Humanity’s Project Akilah team, in hopes to continue to apply these skills but ended up being part of something much more amazing then I could have imagined.

We all work diligently to design a sustainable campus for the women of Rwanda because we know the positive impact it will have in the community. One of the most inspiring parts of what we are doing is knowing that it’s not just about designing a few building but creating environments that will house the hopes and future dreams of the women of Rwanda.”
