Hello, and thanks for visiting my site!
I've always been attracted to how buildings and infrastructure organize our daily lives—how a well-designed house can bring us comfort and inspiration, how public spaces can bring us together, and how the built environment influences how we experience the world. Having had my initial exposure to the industry in an architecture company, curiosity turned into passion quite soon and, thus, prompted me to aim for a profession where technical skill and imagination come together to craft spaces that not only work but also make sense.
I recently graduated with my B.S. in Architecture and B.B.A. in General Business from Texas Tech University, where I had the opportunity to learn about the intersection of design, technology, and human experience. Throughout my education, I worked on many projects that necessitated me to think critically about space, form, and function. From theoretical studio exercises to hands-on building workshops, I gained a profound appreciation for the way architectural ideas take shape from quick sketching to actual, material spaces. With my coursework, I gained a strong foundation in design theory, effective building practices, and integrating structural systems with architecture with the added ability to learn innovative software for digital fabrication.
Beyond the classroom, I’ve had the opportunity to apply my knowledge in real-world settings that have shaped my design perspective. One of my most rewarding experiences was presenting my work on multifamily housing and adaptive reuse to real estate developers, senior architects, and members of the Lubbock community—offering ideas that could serve as a foundation for their own projects. Experiences such as these have made me even more committed to designing spaces that are not only functional but that genuinely enrich the lives of the people who occupy them.
I possess skills in urban planning, digital modeling, and interior architecture and have gained strong technical skills in industry-standard software like Rhino, Revit, Adobe Creative Suite, and V-Ray. But more than the tools and techniques, I believe architecture is all about people—about creating spaces that engage users on an emotional level and establish meaningful connections between people and their environment.
Ahead, I look ahead to continuing to push myself as a designer and pushing the boundaries of design. My plans in the future include going on to get my master's degree in architecture at the University of Texas at Arlington, getting licensed, and hopefully stretching my design base through travel and experience.
