Way back in 2010, on my 4th birthday, my dad and grandma gave me a shoebox of LEGO® from my dad's childhood. Little did they know what they had done. I got hooked. Like absolutely hooked. After that, I was gifted sets like the City Corner and the Apple Tree House. This is what led to my creation of a very primitive and very rainbow LEGO® city. Soon enough, I started taking apart my sets and making my own buildings. This is what started my passion for making custom MOCs (my own creation) out of LEGO® . Soon enough, I was growing my LEGO® city and collection into a whole lot more than a shoebox. In the 8th grade I built my first model of a real world house, being my own. Then 2020 came, and I found myself with arguably too much time to build. This led me to create a detailed model of Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater located near my hometown of Pittsburgh. In December of 2021, I was required to do a culminating project for the IB program at my high school. This ultimately led to the creation of HCHM, which has grown rapidly since then.
