A little about her...
Why she's passionate about Landscape Architecture
"The potential for positive outcomes - from an environmental, sustainable, social, aesthetic and cultural perspective, it has the power to improve people's lives through the generations, in very direct and meaningful ways."
One thing most people may not know about her
"Seven years ago I began metalsmithing classes at the Stutz. Along with a variety of private shows I've had the good fortune to be invited to exhibit at events for Indianapolis Arts Council, Harrison Center and Indianapolis Museum of Contemporary Art."
Favorite travel
London, England - unparalleled history, culture, residential & commercial development, open space, green space, architecture. Embodies everything that makes urban centers great.
Best advice
"From my dad: 'It's not the mistakes you make, it's the grace to admit them, to do whatever it takes to fix them, to learn from them and move on."
