Where is your hometown? Where did you go to school?
I was born and raised in Austin, Texas and went to Austin High School - a true Austinite! In 2007, I earned my BA in Journalism at Stephen F. Austin State University in Nacogdoches, Texas.

What do you like to do in your free time? Hobbies?
In my spare time I am usually with my husband or friends and you can see me going to a concert, the dog park, the movies, the lake, the greenbelt, working out, yoga, or working on our house.

What promped you to join SMPS Austin?
I began working in the A/E/C business a little over three years ago in Houston, Texas and I was working for a marketing consultant group. We just moved to Austin about 6 months ago and that’s when I started working at PSP as a marketing assistant. I don’t’ know that many people in this field in Austin, so I knew that joining SMPS would help me get to know others. Also, it’s a great opportunity for networking and the educational resources are endless.
