Born in Irving and raised in Stephenville, TX, I knew from age six that I wanted to be an architect. My fascination with high-rise buildings eventually led me to pursue a career in architecture. The opportunity to collaborate with others and draw inspiration from my colleagues keeps me motivated every day—and a good cup of coffee doesn’t hurt, either.
