Madison Summers

Madison Ianta Summers, Assoc. AIA, NOMA embodies the dual roles of architectural designer within the K-12 sector and university professor, driven by her fervent dedication to guiding and inspiring students. Presently, she imparts wisdom in Digital Tools at Howard University, with plans to spearhead a pioneering course in spring 2025 where students will actively construct installations to enhance their campus buildings. Holding a master's degree in architecture from Hampton University, her specialization in Sea Level Rise underscores her commitment to sustainability.

Her pursuit of excellence extends to acquiring her Passive House Designer certification by May 2024. Engaged extensively with her local NOMA and NOMAS chapters, Madison's involvement dates back to her participation in the esteemed NFF Fellowship in Winter 2021. From attending annual conferences to leading sessions and now collaborating with the NFF team as their University Liaison, Madison is deeply immersed in fostering connections within the architectural community.

Assuming the esteemed position of DC NOMA's University Liaison, alongside her adjunct professorship, she amplifies support for students while forging strategic alliances between academic institutions and professional bodies. Beyond her architectural endeavors, Madison finds solace and creative expression in crafting digital art, available through her online emporium, The Serenity Shoppe, dedicated to nurturing both physical and spiritual well-being.
