"This summer, I had the opportunity to intern at W Partnership, a Houston-based architecture firm specializing in multifamily design. Through this experience, I have gained a better understanding of the profession beyond architecture school by working alongside architects and designers and contributing to real projects. I have been able to strengthen my design and technical skills while learning more about the different stages of the design process and how projects are developed in a professional setting. One of the most rewarding parts of this experience has been learning from and working with such a welcoming team.

I am very grateful to W Partnership and the Academic Achievers Program for providing me with this opportunity to grow both personally and professionally as I continue my journey in architecture."

Meet Mayra “May” Garcia, our Communications Coordinator and a proud Academic Achievers Program (AAP) alumna!

Mayra’s connection to CMALS began during her undergraduate years at the University of Houston, where she majored in Corporate and Strategic Communication and interned right here at the Center. Today, she brings that experience full circle, working tirelessly to capture and share the stories that make CMALS special. From student life and academic achievement to our programs, events and community impact, May has a refreshing way of highlighting it all. We’re proud to have an AAP alumna now helping tell the story of the community that once helped shape her own journey.
