Today, we're catching up with Paula Torres Munevar. She was a member of SCAD's Woman's Golf team, and she graduated in 2025 with a BA in Interior Design. We checked in on what she's been doing since her time at SCAD, and the impact that her experience in the sports program had on her career!
 
What does life look like for you after graduation?
After graduation, I joined an architecture and interior design firm. Being about to build that confidence and credibility in a professional interior design environment while seeing my work move from concept to real-world application is something I'm truly proud of.
 
What is a favorite memory or moment as a member of the golf team?
My favorite moments were competing at conference and nationals during my final college tournaments. It was exciting, emotional, and unforgettable. I was so happy to have the chance to represent SCAD one last time.
 
What is one life or career lesson you've learned through your sports career at SCAD?
I learned that long-term success is built through discipline. The discipline I developed through the program extended far beyond sports, and it continues to shape how I approach my professional goals. That, coupled with patience, and trust in the process taught me to embrace challenges and keep pushing forward even when things get tough.
 
What is your advice to the new members of the SCAD Bees community?
Balancing academics and athletics isn't for everyone, so be proud of being part of something as special as SCAD Bees. Embrace the challenge, enjoy every moment, and know that this experience will stay with you for a lifetime.
 
What is your advice to the current members of the SCAD Bees community?
Enjoy every moment and be present, time flies faster than you think. College is one of those rare chapters where growth, friendships, and memories all come together, so make the most of it while you're in it.
