about.
My name is Sophia Gonzalez.
Although generic in its nature, Gonzalez has been passed down to me by my ancestors and is my most defining feature. The eight letters you see on the page might indicate my Hispanic lineage but it does not tell you that my life was shaped by the environment and artists I was raised by. It does not provide you with the knowledge of my childhood in Dallas Texas, or my teenage years in Austin; both of which were incredibly influential in nurturing my love for the built world and my desire to be a more crucial part of it. I have a love for music and art that are shared by people with those same eight letters and have led me to where I am today, a first year in the Architecture program at CalPoly. My name is mine alone, as are the aspects of myself that I hold close to my heart.
