My First Demo — Why Claude is the Reason I am Here

The story of how I got here — from architecture school to an AI accelerator — told through the photos along the way.

The story of how I got here — from architecture school to an AI accelerator — told through the photos along the way.

Feeling the material. Architecture is about touching the world.

The CAD monkey grind. We've all been here.

Home. Florida.

The text that changed everything. 'hello priya... we have a scheme.'

First conversation with Claude. 'I'd like to build a polished personal website.'

Learning the tools. Claude Code vs Desktop — figuring it all out.

The vibe.

The reality.

And that's how I ended up here.
