University of Georgia, Athens, GA, US, Bachelors, Interior Design, Anthropology
I was a double major in Anthropology and Interior Design. My focus in Anthropology was namely social/cultural behaviors with a focus on culinary traditions. This focus helps inform my design work in my ability to successfully research client behaviors and execute plans which support their individual behaviors. My two passions were developed further during my study abroad experience which was based in Cortona, Italy.
