i n t r o duction Hi, pleased to meet you! My name is Michelle Ho, and I am an Architecture student from The University of Melbourne. I have had a varied upbringing: born in Perth to Chinese-Malaysian parents, and I spent most of my childhood in the United States and Melbourne. I always enjoyed being creative and liked making things with my hands, and this led to an interest in Architecture. In comparison to my university peers, I consider myself to having a limited experience with digital design tools, having only undertaken Virtual Environments (also led by Stanislav Roudavski) back in my first year of study where I experimented with Rhino. Needless to say, I found it difficult and stressful, and it discouraged me from using it again in my second year. Despite this past experience however, I am determined to put my prejudice aside of digital design tools from now on. I am enthusiastic about the possibilities my peers and I can achieve using algorithms with Rhino and Grasshopper. I am quite excited to enjoy the ride that is Architecture Design Studio: Air, and I look forward to developing my digital design skills and overcoming challenges I may encounter. Bring it on!
