A high school drafting class was all it took to spark an interest in architecture. I loved putting things together, and the mechanical precision of drafting made it clear this was the path for me. That passion led me to Texas Tech, where I earned my degree in Architecture. What I enjoy most is seeing a project go from an idea on paper to a fully realized building. Drawings are just art until they’re built—once they’re standing and serving their purpose, that’s architecture. I take pride in the many buildings I’ve worked on and the challenges that come with designing spaces that will serve communities for years to come.
Family is everything, and my four grandkids keep me busy in the best way. My fun photo includes a unicorn my granddaughter and I painted together—a little reminder of what matters most. When I do have free time, you’ll probably find me playing or watching golf.
