Outside of work, where can we find you?  
Outside of work you can find me playing volleyball, pickleball, and organizing my run club! I also enjoy non-fiction reading, photography, and watching Youtube with my bunny, Ruby.

Why YMF matters to you:
As a new San Diegan, who moved here knowing no one and nothing about SD, YMF has given me an opportunity to learn about the Civil Engineering industry and culture of this region. This is a big unspoken part of our industry and YMF provided an opportunity to hear from local leaders and firms of all sizes at the monthly programs. YMF also gave me a network to make friends outside of the workplace, which is a major struggle outside of school.
​
Proudest achievement:
​My proudest recent achievement is working on an Active Transportation Grant which got ranked #1 in the state of California for it's cycle, and with a perfect score. This was especially exciting as it was my first time working on a grant application!
