“My journey to CW began while working alongside the team on a long-term project with Austin Convention Center. Over the course of two years, I came to appreciate the incredibly specialized expertise CW brings to the table—solving complex, highly specific challenges that few others in the industry are equipped to handle. Each project felt like a new and fascinating puzzle, and that intellectual curiosity really resonated with me. When the opportunity came to join the team and expand into both domestic and international work, it felt like a natural next step.”
