Give a little general information about yourself: How did you become interested in architecture?

Throughout my life I’ve travelled and lived in numerous places, and the most captivating part of it is the architecture. From the skyscrapers to the little brick buildings. Though architecture alone is interesting, I also gained interest in the natural environment and the relationship of architecture to the natural environment. Eventually I decided to dissolve my interests with my ambitions, which is to design affordable net-zero buildings/homes.

What kind of career do you hope to have?

I hope to become a Licensed Architect.

 

What is your favorite thing about UNC Charlotte, the College of Arts + Architecture, or the School of Architecture?

My favorite part about the School of Architecture is the steady pace of the program and the way it pushes you outside of your comfort zone to create work that you did not think you were capable of.

When you are not in class, studying, or working, what do you like to do for fun?

Going to the beach, painting and travelling.
