Rosa Lisa Fry - Preservation Austin

Rosa received her BFA in Printmaking and Art History from Syracuse University in 2011 and her MS in Historic Preservation from UT Austin in 2019.

After launching her career in architectural history as a Preservation Austin volunteer in 2016, Rosa is delighted to return to the organization as Program Manager. Prior to her move back to Texas, Rosa was a preservation consultant in Los Angeles where she specialized in historic resource surveys. 

She has many years of experience working in Austin restaurants and now particularly revels in cheerful happy hours in historic spaces. She seeks to engage Austinites in preservation programs that are progressive, sustainable, and joyful.
