MEET OUR 2023 RECIPIENTS!

ASPE San Diego Chapter 4 offers an annual scholarship to help aspiring estimators and scholars within the construction management field.

  • A Construction Management student with a Minor in Architecture at the NewSchool of Architecture and Design. Born and raised in Colorado, with a passion for the construction industry. Gaining knowledge in project planning, cost estimation, resource management, and site supervision so I'm prepared to contribute to successful construction projects in the future.

  • My name is Diego Mendoza and I am currently a 5th year at San Diego State University. Coming into college I was originally a Kinesiology major with a future in medicine, but after two years I decided I no longer had any passion for it. That's when I decided to explore engineering and after taking a visual design and construction class I knew the construction industry was what I wanted to be in. Since then I have taken my fair share of difficult and fun courses and am looking forward to graduating and working for a general contracting firm. I eventually want to be a part of the team who closes deals.

  • My name is Ines Dacruz and I am an incoming sophomore at San Diego State University. I am in the process of earning my bachelor of science in Construction Management. I have really enjoyed my experience at SDSU, and I look forward to continuing my education and seeing what the vast world of construction has to offer me. Since beginning college, I have been able to actively participate and be involved in extracurriculars, while maintaining a 4.0 GPA.

    I am a member of the Women in Business chapter, the non-profit Best Buddies club, as well as Run Club. This semester I will be re-starting the Women in Construction chapter as president at SDSU, and I also plan to join the AGC/CMAA chapter. I am currently taking three summer classes as well as working part-time. I am looking forward to obtaining my first internship next summer.

  • My name is Juliet Luevanos and I am a 22-year-old college student attending San Diego State University. In the 2022-2023 school year I will be a senior studying construction engineering, the president of the AGC/CMAA Student Chapter and working part-time as a project engineer intern. Once I graduate, I plan to continue working as a project engineer and eventually a project manager. I am heavily invested in this career because I truly enjoy the community and values that the industry upholds. As a student, I have experienced the outpouring of support from construction organizations such ASPE.

    My education pursuits would not have been possible without the help of my professors and the construction engineering program. I greatly appreciate this opportunity because I can dedicate myself to my studies and extracurriculars. Through my involvement, I hope to one-day help students like myself. Thank you for supporting me in reaching my personal and professional potential.
