I am a 2020 graduate of the Historic Preservation program. I obtained my Bachelor of Architecture degree from the University of Southern California in 2018. My interest in preservation sprouted from the adaptive reuse of historic buildings and has expanded to valuing preservation as a tool for neighborhood revitalization, growth, community pride, and extending greater impact on shaping our environment and carrying forth history and culture. I wish to develop my future career at the intersection of historic preservation, planning, and broader urban studies.
