About Barron 

What’s your current role or area of work?

• Architect + Community Builder

​Who is someone you admire?

• I admire my mentor and teacher, Aaron Johnson, who taught me that we'll never get anywhere meaningful alone.

What’s one book, film or podcast that has shaped your perspective?

• The American Lonley Man by Hidden Brain. In 2018, this podcast woke me up to the silent and devastating emotional crisis that men are facing (and which I would too, if I didn't do something about it.)

What inspired you to be part of TEDxKU?

• I have an idea worth spreading... and it's time for the world to hear it. I'm so grateful to give this talk in the school of architecture, too - it's all too fitting
