Ask Me About

My Interests:

I am currently working on learning more about green practices in architecture since that is my major. I am fascinated by the way we can produce more eco friendly buildings especially with the new technology and building methods. I love the idea of reuse an existing building and crafting it into a more sustainable dwelling for people to thrive.

Eco-Mission

My Eco-Mission:

I am constantly inspired by all of the natural environments around the globe. Whenever I go out into the wild I always come back refreshed and grateful, therefore, I hope to help raise awareness for the natural environment and show people why it is so important to protect our natural resources. Not to mention, help people learn and adopt a greener lifestyle.

My Fun Side

My favorite planet friendly activity is:

biking or hiking.

One of my eco-guilty pleasures is:

educating people on greener practices in a more eco-friendly lifestyle.

If I were an animal, I would be:

eagle.

My favorite wild place is:

Rocky Mountain National

My favorite way to get outdoors is:

fishing, kayaking, rock climbing. Basically any outdoor recreational activities.

On a More Serious Note

I am driven to make a difference in the world because:

I believe everyone from the past, present, and future should be able to enjoy the same gems that have been crafted by mothernature herself. Additionally, I dream to inspire a greener lifestyle by intergrating human and nature to a well-balanced lifestyle and that no animal or habitat is in endangered.

The greatest skill I bring to a team is:

I think of a lot of ideas and think outside the box.

If I could change one thing about my community it would be:

to help people care about the environment and others around them. I think everyone should have a basic concern for the environment because at the end of the day earth will still be here but if we, human race, keep treating mother earth the way we do, we will be gone.
