About the Author
Tim is a fifth-year undergraduate architecture student in the College of Architecture, Art, and Planning at Cornell University. He began blogging for “Life on the Hill” in Fall 2008 while studying abroad in Italy at the Cornell in Rome program. This Fall, he is participating in the “AAP in NYC” program — an urban semester that allows architecture students to live and study in the heart of Manhattan. He lives on the Upper East Side and attends class somewhere in the vicinity of Union Square. Life is good.
