Something about architecture’s combination of art, science, and math I found compelling early on. I think the final product and space making was what truly fascinated me. Around the age of 13 I purchased some basic computer-aided drafting (CAD) software, playing around with making spaces/buildings of my own. This led to taking some introductory courses in high school, and eventually I continued down that path through college, work, and licensure to where I am today.
