Tanisi has already participated in the Architecture virtual camp through CU Denver, and had this to say about the program:
"I went into the "Architecture in the City" Summer Camp hosted by CU Denver with a great passion and excitement for the field, but also with no previous experience or real-world knowledge about architecture. Through the activities and discussions that took place over the three days of camp, I have learned a tremendous amount, not just about the field, but also about college life studying architecture, and getting from the occupation of a student to an intern and eventually a successful architect. Through many design and build challenges, we learned about the design process and the importance of communication when working with a team, not just through our words, but through our drawings and models as well. On the last day of the camp, we even had the opportunity to present a project that we did with our groups in front of other students in the camp, architecture students at CU Denver, and professionals in the field of architecture to get a small introduction to what our college experience as an architecture major would look like. Architecture was something that I have been interested in pursuing in the future for the last two years, and this camp truly has proved that architecture is what I want to do as my profession."
