Candace Wong, an Austin native and Texas A&M undergrad, is the founding principal of cwA+D, LLC. After a long stint of life, school, and jobs in Texas, Candace followed her heart and career to Los Angeles to earn a Master of Architecture at the University of Southern California, found a home at the award-winning firm KAA Design, and became a licensed Architect in 2015.

After 6 years of soaking up California sun and modern architecture influence, Candace returned to Texas to start up cwA+D (aka Candace Wong Architecture + Design), a custom-residential design practice specializing in modern design for lifestyles and fun. Outside of her practice, Candace serves on the NCARB Forms Committee and AIA Austin Homes Tour Committee, is active in the Terry Scholar Alumni Association, and maintains licensure in California and Texas.
