Welcome!

I am Yiselle Santos Rivera, an architect, educator, and advocate for inclusive leadership. I am running for AIA 2026 President-Elect because this is our time to lead with purpose. Together, we can shape an AIA that empowers its members, amplifies the voice of the profession, and builds a future where every architect thrives.

Let’s design a profession that reflects who we are and what we value. Let’s build an AIA for all of us.
