Welcome to KW San Antonio, Yi Z.! With a Master of Landscape Architecture degree from the University of Illinois at Champaign-Urbana, Yi kick-started her career in Nashville and recently moved to San Antonio to join KW as a Project Coordinator. In her role, Yi nurtures client relationships, conceptualizes their visions, and works closely with her team to ensure projects stay on track. When asked about our vision of Building the Exceptional Together, Yi shared “The first word that comes to mind is teamwork. While teamwork is common in our field, it’s not always done efficiently or productively. This vision also reflects ambition and confidence, which makes me excited and eager to see the chemical reactions we can create together.” In her free time, Yi can be found hiking at national and state parks, camping with her husband, or playing small ball sports like badminton, pickleball, tennis, or table tennis!
