Helping Architecture students around the world since 2019

About Karen – The Story Behind the Copy

Girl Boss Architect was born out of long nights in the studio, caffeine-fueled deadlines, and one big realization: architecture school is tough—and far too often, wellness gets left at the drafting table.

Karen launched Girl Boss Architect in 2019 during her undergrad as a personal blog and creative outlet. What started as a way to document her own journey through architecture school quickly grew into something more: a resource for students around the world navigating the same pressure-filled environment.

The blog became a safe space to break down complicated architectural concepts, share honest tips about surviving critiques and burnout, and remind readers that yes, you can have a life outside of studio. Girl Boss Architect evolved from a side project into a supportive community, and eventually, into a professional portfolio that opened the doors to a thriving copywriting career.

Turning Passion Into Profession

As Karen deepened her work on the blog, she discovered a passion for writing that extended beyond architecture. She began working with businesses across various industries—finance, health, construction, and more—translating her knack for clear, empathetic communication into results-driven content.

From there, her skillset expanded to include:

  • Search Engine Optimization (SEO) – helping pages land in top spots on Google

  • Long-form content and technical writing – simplifying complex ideas for wider audiences

  • Marketing and conversion strategy – writing landing pages, emails, and blog content that turn readers into action-takers

Through it all, the mission has remained the same: helping people understand big ideas through approachable, well-crafted writing.
