"Early on in my education, I was instilled with a desire to make a profound impact on the world. I found a way to do that with design; a career in interior design allows me to be a part of creating better environments for people to live and work within. IIDA is an important part of that path; membership connects me to a global network, provides leadership and advocacy opportunities, advances my professional development, and much more!"
