A Next Great Adventure talk by Amra Faraz · Acton Academy Lahore
A legal advocate
A criminal justice reformer
A year ago he stood on an NGA stage and asked for a SketchUp subscription; he taught himself 3D modeling and cold-emailed his way into four apprenticeships. Now he's headed to an 80-hour summer apprenticeship at Gensler in Chicago - the largest architecture firm in the U.S. - chasing one question: what is architecture in the era of AI?
Three Yale contract-law courses and 300+ hours of legal apprenticeships later, Aryan built Legal Duck - an AI contract-analysis platform now being beta tested by practicing transactional attorneys. His credo: most people wait for permission. He started building anyway.
