After graduating Stephenville High School, I attended Texas A&M University (TAMU) and received my bachelors in environmental design and a minor in art and architectural history. Also during this time I studied abroad in the Florentine region of Italy. Upon graduation I immediately started my master of architecture degree with a focus in adaptive reuse at Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) where I spent the summer studying in Copenhagen through DIS- Danish Institute for Study Abroad. I will graduate in May 2014 and will be relocating with my husband to Virginia Beach, VA.
