1. Name, title?
Hello, I am Adriana Gonzalez, I am a designer!
2. Where is your hometown and where do you live now?
My hometown is San Fernando Valley but I was raised in Fort Worth Texas (I still claim I am from California, though.)
3. What type of company did you work at previously and what was your role there?
I worked for a Historical Preservation Architecture Firm as an Interior Design Intern.
4. What would we most likely find you doing on the weekend?
I just graduated and now I am trying to figure out what I like to do… other than always doing homework! I do enjoy taking photos and hope to get back into that hobby.
5. When people visit your town, what are the top local spot(s) you recommend to them?
a. Stockyards: If you want to experience the “Wild West.”
b. Downtown Historic Grapevine: If you come during the Christmas season, this area feels like you are in a Christmas movie!
c. Deep Ellum: If you're more interested in the arts, music, and food
6. What is your favorite memory from the past year?
Last year, I went to Puerto Vallarta and fell in love with it. I got to release baby sea turtles into the ocean!
7. Salty or Sweet? What’s your favorite snack?
Any moment is a great time to get ice cream or a smoothie!
8. Do you have a favorite quote, piece of advice, or core value you live by?
For some reason since I was a kid, my favorite quote has always been, “Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It's not.” It's from Dr Seuss' The Lorax.
9. Show us your true colors! Which professional and/or college team(s) do you cheer for?
I don’t watch sports but when I see the LA Dodgers play or the Mexican soccer team, I cheer them on!
10. What are you most looking forward to at Tangram and what do you hope to bring to the team?
I’m looking for a new challenge that can help me broaden my experience and I believe Tangram will do just that! With my skill set and experience, this would give me an opportunity to build relationships and learn new things!
