Sofi Hooks recently joined Land Design Associates as an Associate Landscape Architect. She completed her Master of Landscape Architecture at the University of Georgia in May 2025, following her completion of a Bachelor's Degree in Landscape Architecture in 2024. While maintaining a full course load, she also earned experience in residential garden design, community-driven urban planning, and commercial development through multiple internships and assistantships. During her graduate program, she executed her master’s thesis on identifying the factors of landscape design that impact perceived stress through behavioral analysis, along with a mixed-methods study. Her research was presented at the Council of Educators in Landscape Architecture's Annual Conference in March of 2024 and will be published later this year. When not working, she enjoys long walks, communing with friends, shooting pool, and Zumba. Sofi is proud to be working with LDA and is eager to engage with the community.
