Kirsten is a senior in Preservation within the Architectural Studies program. Through Pitt she has had the wonderful opportunity to explore her passions through both a field school, in Bulgaria, and a study abroad in Istanbul. Her interest in research, specifically in Istanbul, experience in cities, and memory, has led her to take a non-traditional approach to the preservation track. As such, Kirsten is working on an honor’s thesis as well as taking the culminating preservation studio.
Kirsten will be presenting on her research, entitled "Spirituality of Non-Sacred Space: Sanctifying a More Socialist Agenda," at HAAARCH 2015.
