Grace’s Career Goals

I am currently enrolled in the graduate college Certificate program for Preservation and Cultural Heritage; I am a 2020 alumnus of Iowa State University, having completed my Bachelor of Architecture (BArch) and Minor in Sustainability. Professionally, I aspire to work with initiatives in historic preservation, architectural design, and the ethical stewardship of cultural resources. I am seeking internship and job opportunities for the 2021-22 academic year (locally, nationally, & internationally).
