About 

I see myself as a very creative individual who is addicted to all things design. I am a recent graduate of The NewSchool of Architecture with a BArch from a 5yr accredited program. I have a strong passion for the conceptual design side of architecture as well as 3d-modeling, rendering, graphic presentation, and modeling building- with the program knowledge, skills, and craftsmanship to match. I absolutely love creating things with my own two hands and I take pride in everything that I do.
