I grew up in College Station and graduated from Texas A&M before moving to Houston to begin my engineering career. In 2018, I moved back home to Aggieland to open the H2B College Station office. I  enjoy spending time with my wife, Cortney, and three kids, Elliot, Bellamy, and Elise. I am actively involved in my church and enjoy CrossFit during my free time.

I graduated Texas A&M University in 2017. After graduation, I moved to Houston and started working for H2B. I enjoy getting to know Houston, especially the restaurant scene. I spend most of my time with my husband, son, and our big extended family. When I'm not chasing after my toddler, I enjoy scrapbooking and cooking.​

When I’m not spending time with my wife and son, I’m working on a DIY project, watching soccer, or exercising. As for my career, I decided to pursue civil engineering because I enjoy the challenges of math and natural science, and I have a passion for the built environment.

I was born and raised in College Station, Texas and earned my bachelor's degree in civil and environmental engineering from Chalmers University of Technology. After 5 years in Gothenburg, Sweden, I moved back to Texas and eventually landed at H2B's College Station branch to kick-off my career as a civil engineer! In my free time, I enjoy my many hobbies that include photography, the gym, mountain biking, cars, and hockey.
