What is Schematic Design and What to Expect 

With an Associate Degree in Architectural Design & CAD (GPA 4.0) some years ago, while raising my children, I'm passionate about immersing myself in architectural design services. With freelance design and drafting experience on small business & residential scale, what would you suggest I pursue next to spark a consultation career in pre- & schematic design? (eg: BIM classes, marketing to developers, firms, individual architects?) I'm looking for a solid direct path to use my design and artistic skills but I'm not 30 anymore, so I want to Jumpstart this career venture). Thankyou. Susan.
