Major: Civil Engineering
Kiewit Internship Location(s): Colorado

After obtaining my Civil Engineering degree, I plan to use my newfound technical skills and leadership in order to serve my community. In high school, I served in the STEM academy for four years, eventually ending my high school career in first place for our regional SAME Student Mentoring Program engineering competition. Throughout my senior year, our team designed, modeled, and estimated a sustainable neighborhood development for the Midwest.

In addition to my passion for engineering, I love camping, hiking (especially in the mountains), kayaking, rock climbing, working out, playing the piano, reading, and so much more!
