Learning from Las Vegas I understand sustainable design, living in the harsh climate of the Mojave desert. I travel a lot and value diversity having worked the Las Vegas Strip. I am passionate about socially responsible design resolutions that benefit the client, user, and community. I enjoy making and fabrication, diversifying my education I collaborated with UNLV Hospitality and Robotics Laboratory, learning to code, electronics, and start-up development.
