Hello, my name is Stephanie Gordin and I just wanted to take a minute to introduce myself as the newest member of the SOHO family. I am originally from Rockville, Maryland where I received my undergraduate degree in American History from the University of Maryland, with a minor in African and African American history. In my senior year a professor with a deep interest in the preservation of buildings and historic sites in the Washington D.C. area introduced me to the field of preservation. The more I learned about this field, the more I became aware of how much of a presence historic buildings have in the landscape we see everyday. That year, I took an internship at the Jewish Historical Society of Greater Washington that truly opened my eyes. Located in the oldest synagogue remaining in D.C, this non-profit organization taught me the benefits of preserving the past, and ways to incorporate these buildings into city designs. I learned, not only how important these buildings are to the communities that support them, but how much can be learned through their preservation.
