Allie Iaccarino grew up in Boston, Massachusetts. She attended the University of Virginia where she received her bachelor’s degree in architecture and urban planning. While in her undergraduate career, Allie spent two years designing educational facilities in Granada, Nicaragua, which inspired her thesis on the design of socially and climatically responsive housing for the Yarmouk District of Damascus, Syria. In addition to her studies, Allie has interned with several non-profits, including Madison House and Big Siblings, and volunteers for Habitat for Humanity. She enjoys exploring the Blue Ridge Mountains, practicing yoga, running marathons and spending time with her three sisters.
