ASHLEY LOPEZ

From a young age I’ve always had a passion for art, with some of my earliest designs being abstract, crayon drawn floor plans. I would often times rearrange the furniture at home and draft up perspectives of my “Dream house”, room by room. While my family has always fully supported my interests, it was my Uncle who I looked up to and inspired me to become an artist. As my passion grew I began to venture into different realms of expression such as art classes, dance, orchestra, drafting, & wood shop. 

While I knew what I wanted to do in high school I didn’t actually start my college or career journey until my early 20’s. In 2015, I started out working 2 part time jobs while also attending College of Southern Nevada. While attending school I managed to get my foot in the door by taking a project coordination job at a small interior design firm. I graduated from CSN with my Associates of Arts degree in 2020, and was accepted into the School of Architecture at UNLV the same year. During my junior year of college I was promoted to Design Associate of Interiors, due to my expertise and overall job experience. In October of 2024 I accepted the position of Lead Designer with NCH, where I will complete my internship. I am now in my senior year of college and will graduate in May of 2026 with my Bachelor of Landscape Architecture from UNLV. Although my degree is exterior related I still hold a passion and practice all types of design. 

Outside of work you can find me at a concert singing my heart out with strangers or at home with my family enjoying the simple things in life.
