Ruth Ann joined Davis in 2026 and is currently completing her B.S. in Architecture at Samford University, with plans to continue into the Masters of Architecture program. Her path to the field began with an architectural studies class in high school, deepened by a lifelong engagement with history, art, and travel. Exploring cities and countries over the years gave Ruth Ann a new lens through which to see the world and confirmed that architecture was the right path. At Samford, Ruth Ann is an active member of AIAS and the ICAA Southeast Chapter, and she serves as Community Service Chair for the Architecture and Interior Collective, where she also participates in the mentorship program. She has valued the collaborative spirit and generosity of her colleagues at Davis from day one. Outside of work, Ruth Ann can be found at the record store, playing guitar, attending concerts, or riding horses.
