Personal Profile
I am a fifth-year student of architecture at the University of Arizona. My appreciation for creative art began at a young age when I started creating pencil portraits of my favorite rappers. My love for sketching flourished as I continued to expand my horizons by drawing the world around me. This process fueled my fascination with the built environment and inspired me to pursue my career in architecture.

Northwest Career & Technical Academy
Civil Engineering
I attended a magnet high school that offered a specialized curriculum in civil engineering with introductory courses in basic physics, construction, and industry-standard software such as Revit or Solidworks. An architectural design course I took during my junior year was the turning point, as I was able to secure a summer internship with a local architecture firm and begin to pursue my degree the following year.
