About 

I’m a designer, student and leader from the West Coast living in the Midwest. I’m studying architecture with the intent to learn from our built environment and generate positive change wherever possible. I love being involved which has driven me to fill multiple leadership roles in various organizations and projects. Every role has reinforced my belief in the idea that you get out of things what you put into them, I always receive a return on my time and energy.
