Liliana has always been curious about the world of art, design, and construction. When she began high school, she entered their architectural program where her instructor inspired her to pursue a career in architecture. During this time, she realized that she could make a positive impact on society through its manipulation of the built environment.

Her academic and professional aspirations are continuously supported by her family. Her family has taught her what hard work can accomplish. Through their loving support she believes she can make positive changes onto people’s lives through her designs.

Her hobbies outside of architecture include making or doing anything that requires a hands-on approach such as painting, crotchet, swimming, and other outdoor activities. What she loves most is spending time with her family and taking her dog on long walks.

Liliana Ocon will be receiving her Bachelor of Science in Architecture this May from the Texas Tech University Huckabee College of Architecture at El Paso. She has been accepted into the University of Texas at Austin where she will pursue her Master of Architecture this upcoming Fall of 2023.
