Sofia Medina

Sofia Medina is a 2022 graduate of NewSchool of Architecture & Design, where she earned a Bachelor of Science in Construction Management with a minor in Interior Design.

She currently works as an Assistant Project Manager with Swinerton Builders in the San Diego Healthcare Division. Sofia chose NewSchool after receiving a recommendation from a construction industry professional and was immediately drawn to the program’s strong industry connections. The professors’ firsthand experience and active professional networks played a defining role in her education, providing real-world insight, practical skills, and meaningful mentorship that prepared her for the demands of construction management.

Sofia encourages current and prospective students to stay open-minded, ask questions, and fully embrace learning opportunities, noting that the collective knowledge of peers, professors, and industry professionals can be a powerful catalyst for growth.
