I earned my Master of Architecture degree from the Washington University in St. Louis Graduate School of Architecture. I graduated with Honors, and was the recipient of the Full-Tuition Scholarship. In addition, I received my Bachelor of Design (Major in Architecture) from the University of Florida where I was awarded the Paul and Harriette Franklin Scholarship for academic performance.
I am experienced in a variety of design techniques such as digital and physical drafting, diagramming and model-making, 3-D rendering, delivering clear design presentations, and thorough site and program analysis.
Currently, I am working toward professional licensure as an intern architect in Washington, DC.
