Favorite thing about being at Georgia Tech: My favorite thing about being at Georgia Tech is the people. I know that’s what many say, but it’s true for a reason. The community here is not only welcoming but also motivating — my peers push me to work harder every day while sharing knowledge and support in ways that continually help me grow.
Who do you want to design for? I want to design for differently abled bodies. With a background in Interior Design, I was drawn to architecture through my fascination with ADA compliance and building codes. I love finding creative ways to integrate accessibility into everyday spaces, transforming requirements into opportunities for inclusive and innovative design.
What do you do for fun? In my free time, I love spending time with my family… meaning my dogs. I have two, Betty and Steve, who demand plenty of attention — keeping up with them is basically a full-time job.
