In May 2018, she will graduate with an Integrated Bachelor/Master of Architectural Engineering degree, with a focus in construction. Alyssa is a member of a number of professional and student organizations including the Penn State Student Society of Architectural Engineering (SSAE) and Student Chapter of the Partnership for Achieving Construction Excellence (S:PACE).

She serves as an Engineering Ambassador, conducting tours for prospective students and outreach for high-school and middle-school students. She also is involved in THON, and served as a Family Relations Chair. In her free time, Alyssa enjoys hiking and playing intramural sports with friends.
Over the past five years, Alyssa has been fortunate enough to have several international and internship experiences. During the summer of 2016 she had the opportunity to participate in the AE study abroad program and travel to Rome, Italy, where she studied architecture and urban planning.
In her first summer, Alyssa interned with Toll Brothers in its Architecture Department where she gained design experience. Over the following three summers, she interned with James G. Davis Construction where she contributed to the evolution of a high rise office building, from excavation through interior fit-out. Throughout her experience, Alyssa worked closely with the PM team and executed quality control in the field. Alyssa worked primary with structural trades and participated in the bid solicitation and analysis for high-end finishes for the building's top levels. Upon graduation, Alyssa will return to James G. Davis Construction to begin her professional career as a project engineer.
