About 

I am a recent graduate at The NewSchool of Architecture and Design, where I earned my Bachelor Degree in Architecture with a focus in Art + Design.

I absolutely love everything about design, and I’m excited to start a career in the creative industry. I can get my hands dirty, by building presentation models or work for hours on capturing the perfect rendering. Hard work, positive motivation and a great attitude are always part of my process to produce well thought designs from spaces to art work.

Since 2005, I have acquired many skills from the hands-on experience I’ve earned working both in Architecture and Engineering field. With the knowledge I gained working both fields, I value more the process that goes into a collaborative design process.

I specialize in developing schematic drawings to construction development. I am flexible enough to work odd hours and do well in the changing environments that go along within these fields. My personality and interpersonal skills allow me to adapt well and interact with co-workers and clients in a professional and friendly manner.

In my future as a professional designer, I hope to continue a life long journey of developing my skills by exposing myself to a variety of cultures, mediums, and applications. These are the tools that fuel my inspirations as a creative individual. I hope to work with many like minded artist along the way to gain useful wisdom, experience and most importantly for the mere pleasure of collaboration.
