Favorite thing about being at Georgia Tech: One of my most favorite things about Georgia Tech is honestly the people. The campus is filled with driven, talented individuals who are not only passionate about their fields but also eager to collaborate and support one another. Whether it’s your friends, in student organizations, or casual conversations, there’s a strong sense of community that fosters personal and academic growth. The diverse perspectives and shared commitment to excellence make it a very inspiring place.
Who do you want to design for? As I design, I try to keep in mind how to design for all inclusive communities. This ranges from ensuring accessibility, equity to all ages, diversity, and inclusion. I love transforming spaces to fit the needs of mixed communities/people and sustainable principles to do so.
What do you do for fun? I love to do a lot of different things in my free time! I love being in the outdoors, hiking, rock climbing, and I love to explore creative hobbies as well. I've recently enjoyed graphic design, designing posters/t-shirts, video editing, and photography. My all time favorite pastime however is definitely re-watching my favorite show, Friends!
