About 

I am a recent graduate of University of Nebraska Lincoln in their honors program, with a Bachelor’s in Architecture. My experience thus far pursuing a career in architecture has been nothing but positive. The professors and projects I have been lucky to learn from at UNL have solidified my passion for furthering my education and obtaining post graduate degrees. I am currently gaining experience in the field as an architectural associate and hoping to start in a graduate program in the Fall of 2023.
