Selam! My name is Rediet (Red) Shama, and I’m going into my fourth year studying architecture at the University of Southern California. Outside of architecture, I’m a huge fan of Marvel movies, art, and music. I also enjoy learning about EOTC history and the ways history and faith shape communities over time.

As someone who firmly believes understanding the history and culture of a place makes for a stronger architect and designer, I'm really excited to fully immerse myself in the rich history of a city that is truly like no other.
