IDP Coordinator
Monday, 30 July 2012 00:00
I wanted to take a few minutes to introduce myself to you: My name is Sean Sheffler, AIA, and as of last month, I have taken over the mantle of Pennsylvania's IDP State Coordinator. I was born and raised in Western Pennsylvania, earned my degree in architecture from the Pennsylvania State University, and have spent my entire career since then working in Pittsburgh (most recently at WTW Architects, working for our AIA National Secretary -Elect, Rich DeYoung, AIA). I completed IDP in 2004, earned my architectural registration in March of 2006, and became a LEED AP in December of 2008. In 2011, I served as the Chair of AIA Pittsburgh's Young Architects Forum, and I continue to support that group as its Immediate Past Chair.
In the role of the IDP Coordinator, I can be reached via email at

. You can also follow me on https://twitter.com/IDP_PA where I'll be tweeting and re-tweeting anything that I feel is relevant to the path an intern takes toward licensure.
Lastly, I've also started a blog, In DePth, which is devoted to all things related to Education, Experience, and Examination in Pennsylvania. New posts will be shared on the IDP Coordinator's Twitter feed, which you can re-tweet to your followers if you like. If you have comments or suggestions for potential topics, please drop me a line. I do want this to be reflective of Pennsylvania in its entirety, not just my little corner of it. If there's anything that I can do to make sure that the needs of your particular component are being met, please be sure to let me know.
