Art, reading, learning, hiking with my english bulldog and anything creative! Also anything fun I am always game for!
I love the work of Zaha Hadid and how organic and artistic it is. Its like giant art in building form.
I love being surrounded by open-minded creatives everyday. Collaboration and openness to creativity makes this job awesome.
I grew up in Santa Cruz with an affinity for all things beautiful. I have always been intrigued by art in every form - fashion, design, nature, movies, really anything with intentional beauty. I went to California State University of Long Beach where I got a Bachelors degree in Design with concentrations in fashion and product design. I studied Spanish language for a year in a tiny city in the South of Spain, Jaen. I met some incredible mentors in my final years of school, that pushed me to use my entrepreneurial skills to push forward a fashion concept company that I created for a school project. With their encourgaement my partner and I won gold in an innovation competition against hundreds of companies. In our first year we opened a brick and mortar store. I grew out of that venture but have maintained the same drive for intense creativity. I have a certificate from HarvardX in entrepreneurship in emerging economies. I am now using my business savviness to learn about architecture and following my personal goals of being a film director. My passions since a child have remained consistent: creativity + entrepreneurship + all things beautiful.
