Education, Qualifications, and Resume

Qualifications

I graduated in December 2024 from the University of Colorado Denver with a Bachelor of Arts in Geography, concentrating in Urban Studies and Planning.

Along the way, I also earned a certificate in Geographic Information Science (GIS), sharpening my skills in spatial analysis and data visualization.

My education combined the study of cities, people, and places — and showed me how thoughtful planning can make a real difference in communities. With a strong foundation in urban development strategies, geography, and sustainability, I’m excited to help create cities that are resilient, inclusive, and ready for the future.


Globally inspired, locally invested, and always aspiring to make cities work — that’s the heart of the work I want to do.
