Binny Pakhiddey was an Honor student of Costume Design at Fashion Design High School; her skills and focus on details helped her develop an interest for Architecture. While she attended Fashion Design High School her teacher began to notice her passion for detail and materials and thought maybe fashion was not her main interest and advised her to try out something like Architecture. Binny has two years at City Techn and shares that some of her strengths are focusing and analyzing details and being able to get involved in research; she is also very good at putting things together. She also adds that through out this semester she wants to learn how to manipulate building materials and she wants to learn how to work in a team as a team member and not so much as a leader because she tends to take the position of the leader.
