Lucretia is a mom of three, and advocate for Housing and Homeless here in Santa Barbara, California.

She holds a BS in Architecture with an emphasis on Sustainable Built Environment, with her thesis on Demographic Determinants on Health through the Built Environment, where I explored the cyclical housing through NHA guidelines, redlining and perpetuated socio-economic gap through housing.

She currently works as an Architectural Associate with Vanguard Planning, Inc. Prior, she worked with RRM Design Group, where she was so grateful to work on a variety of excellent projects ranging from Affordable Multifamily housing to Civic and Community. My work at RRM Design group has ranged from Due Diligence, Conceptual Design, and Entitlement Packages to meeting Cal Green requirements and HUD for Affordable Housing requirements. 

In conjunction with local design projects, she is also meeting with SB Act, United Way and the planning commissioner, John Campanella to address the Housing Crisis through a young professional housing discussion panel. She is also part of 100 selected individuals for the SB Leadership team lead by Hal Conklin, specifically focused on a 5-part plan, where I focus on housing development. She has also launched an LLC to coincide with her nonprofit to serve their homeless population, where investors and the city will be working alongside each other to provide housing as an intervention for individuals on the waiting list for the affordable housing sector. All of her previous positions have explored functional information and operations of housing development on multiple levels, with a special emphasis on Homelessness, Affordable Housing, Workforce Housing, and Public Housing.
