HELLO,
I am a recent graduate from The University of Texas at Austin, completing both a Bachelor of Architecture and a Bachelor of Science in Architectural Engineering.
As an active student in the community, I served leadership roles as President of the UT Austin chapter for the Architectural Engineering Institute and as Design Lead for the EERI Seismic Design Competition in 2018 and 2020. I’ve received a UTSoA Design Excellence Nomination and had work published in the school publication ISSUE. You can also often find me hooping at Gregory Gym.
Before university, I graduated from Trinity Valley School in Fort Worth, TX where I was competitive runner and was top 20 in the state for the 800m. During university, I also got an opportunity to study abroad in Paris at the École National Supérieure D’Architecture de Paris-Belleville and practice speaking French (nobody in Texas speaks French!).
I’ve had the opportunity to intern at a variety of firms, most recently at McKinney York and Page Southerland Page. View my LinkedIn profile here!
