What do you enjoy doing outside of work?

I enjoy doing DIY projects around my new house, getting outside and being active or settling in with a good book!

What are the most impactful projects at DRAW?

The New Steel Valley Elementary School has been my most impactful project, both personally and for the community it was designed for. By consolidating two outdated elementary schools, the project created not only a unified campus, but a true sense of community. Bringing students together into one modern facility ensures every child has access to a full range of resources, fostering excitement, collaboration, and a stronger desire to learn within an engaging, forward-thinking environment.

Another project that has been especially impactful to me is the new Indoor Athletic Complex for the Trinity Area School District, designed with a strong focus on student and athlete health and wellness.

What keeps you coming back to work everyday?

Easy, my project teams! The meaningful spaces we create wouldn’t be possible without collaboration, and our teams are so closely bonded that we’re working alongside close friends, not simply coworkers.

What is your favorite architectural building?

Give me a historic building with charm, character, and an enthralling back story of its life and I’ll spend the day exploring it.

What is your dream destination?

A destination where I can experience a different culture through food, new friends, engaging activities and incredible views.

What is your bucket list item?

To just keep traveling every chance I get!
