I grew up in Victoria and never moved until college—so heading to San Antonio for my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Architecture at UTSA was a big step. My love for learning made school an exciting place for me growing up, and it’s what initially made me want to be a teacher. While I didn’t end up in the classroom, I now get to design spaces that enhance learning environments, which is just as rewarding.
I love traveling whenever I get the chance and enjoy creative hobbies like crafting and crochet. Music has always been a big part of my life—I used to perform in choir and theater productions, but now I enjoy being in the audience at country concerts.
What’s one goal you want to achieve in the next 5 years?
I want to be a licensed architect. My goal when I finished graduate school was to have my license by time I was 30.
Favorite TV show?
How I Met Your Mother (and not just because Ted Mosby is an architect)
