SCHRADERGROUP Welcomes Our Summer Interns!
The SCHRADERGROUP Studio is excited to welcome our summer 2025 interns! This year’s interns are Tim Figueroa, Gavin Gallagher, Eladia Crowell, and Cooper Schrader. The interns will shadow our team members and assist with projects throughout the course of their internships in order to immerse themselves within the architecture world and gain a clearer sense of what the career path may hold. The members of our Internal Mentorship Committee have assigned each intern an overarching project to be completed throughout the course of the summer as well as various smaller tasks in an effort to foster individual growth and bolster industry knowledge.
