She received her B.S in Architecture from Prairie View A&M University where she also served in a Student Government Association position as Miss Prairie View A&M University 2017-2018. Her platform, “Build a Better Future” was centered around homeless awareness. She created programs and events that enlightened students of homelessness and advocated for affordable housing. Her efforts were recognized, and she was awarded the Most Impressive Queen Award at the Leadership for Kings and Queens Conference, and was also awarded the Dean Hallmark Award issued by PVAMU’s School of Architecture. Moriah then attended Texas A&M University where she graduated with a Master’s in Architecture. During her enrollment at TAMU she worked as an Architecture Teacher’s Assistant. Soon after her graduation she joined KAI Enterprises where she works on projects that aim to transform communities. Moriah now resides in Dallas, TX with her husband, Jeremy Sims, also an Architectural Associate.
