About 

I am looking for an opportunity which would compliment the academic design
studio experience and continue to develop my understanding of design as a business. I am
also looking for exposure to the team of people who influence how a project develops and I
would like to gain further awareness of the tasks that are necessary for that project to be
realized, from conceptualization to construction. I am extremely interested in utilizing and
refining my own skills to assist in the wide range of a firm's project administrative and
management needs.
