About Emma
Emma Sumrow (she/her), a citizen of the Chickasaw Nation, is a transdisciplinary architectural designer, researcher, artist, and academic whose work explores the intersections of indigeneity, climate, psychology, boundaries, technology, and policy. Based in New York and originally from Texas, she currently holds teaching roles as an Adjunct Assistant Professor at Columbia University's Graduate School of Architecture, Planning, and Preservation as well as Adjunct Instructor at the Hillier College of Architecture and Design at NJIT.
In addition to other distinctions, Sumrow is a recipient of the Charles McKim Prize and the Saul Kaplan Traveling Fellowship. Her work, which reflects a critical and synthesizing approach to design, has been featured in ELLE Décor and will appear in the forthcoming first edition of the International Conference on Adaptive Reuse publication. Drawing on her recent experience as an Architectural Designer at Bernard Tschumi Architects, Sumrow founded studioSMRW (“studio sumrow”) in 2025 – a practice which aims to interrogate diverse intervention typologies as a framework for scalar experimentation.
Sumrow holds a Master of Architecture from Columbia University and a Bachelor of Environmental Design from Texas A&M University.

It is nice to meet you! With seven years of architectural education and a Master of Architecture from Columbia University, I have a unique perspective and strong theoretical and design foundation. I have significant experience in the intro and early levels of design learning for students who are exploring architecture as a college major or as a new path after a full career in a different field. Whether you’re interested in beginning your architectural design journey, or adding to an already developed portfolio to apply to schools or jobs, I can help you reach your goals!
