I recently graduated from Pennsylvania College of Technology with a Bachelor of Science in Building Science and Sustainable Design and with a GPA of 3.7. I was a founding member and the Vice-President of USGBC Students – Pennsylvania College of Technology and was also an active member of the Architectural Student Association. I am an accredited LEED Green Associate. I am looking to obtain a job in the architectural field with a team sharing my passion for design and enthusiasm for creating healthy, beautiful surroundings for the public.
