Growing up, I had the privilege of watching my dad work in the construction industry. From visiting job sites and hearing phone calls to observing him review plans, I knew at a young age that this was the industry I wanted to be in. The opportunity to solve problems and contribute to the creation and restoration of beautiful buildings has always been a driving force for me.
This passion led me to pursue a degree in architectural engineering at the University of Cincinnati, where I recently graduated with a bachelor’s degree in science. During my time there, I took full advantage of every opportunity, including leadership roles in organizations like the American Society of Civil Engineering and the Structural Engineers Association of Ohio. My hands-on experience deepened through three co-op rotations at THP, where I gained invaluable insights into the structural engineering side of the industry. I even had the unique opportunity to complete a double co-op in California, allowing me to travel, explore the West Coast, and experience the industry in a completely different region under the supportive umbrella of my university.
Outside of work and academics, I love being outdoors. My favorite activities include photography, which allows me to capture the beauty of the world around me; skiing, for the thrill of the sport; and pickleball, which I enjoy for its strategic nature and social environment. I also have a passion for traveling, as it provides new perspectives and the opportunity to experience diverse cultures.
