Alexandra Corpora
Structural Designer



Alexandra was raised in the Owens Valley, after which she moved to the Bay Area to earn a BA in Literature from San Francisco State University. She spent 5 wonderful years in Japan, and after returning to the states, was guided by a deep urge to build. This led her to an internship with a master cabinet maker, and a career as a finish carpenter for one of Reno's finest custom home builders. Currently, she and her cohort are helping to build the first accredited Architecture degree program in Northern Nevada at Truckee Meadows Community College, where she is on track to earn a Bachelors of Architecture. She is thrilled to continue her pursuit of building at MWA, and someday become a licensed architect. In her free time, you will find her in the desert, the mountains, or the forest, with a guitar and a notebook.


All Staff

I have had the pleasure of working with MWA Architects on numerous projects dating back to 1990. Not only have I built homes they designed for mutual clients but I have hired them to design several homes for my family as well as multiple successful speculative projects. They possess the knowledge and expertise required for me, as a custom home builder, to easily connect the dots and bring our clients dreams to reality. Their flexibility and creative approach results in homes that are admired by many and loved by those with the privilege of living in them.
