About 

I am excited to work for a firm where I can utilize my skills in architecture and interior design while incorporating sustainable design with new technology in both existing and new construction. I have over ten years of experience in residential architecture and interior design in California and Internationally and I am currently licensed.  I have lived and studied internationally on two separate occasions and thrive in adapting to new situations and rising to the challenge.  Most recently I received a Master's in Interior Design from the Florence Design Academy in Italy.  I have also been a LEED AP since 2008 and have experience in the documentation process.   I am driven and motivated, and take pride in being both a team player and leader with demonstrated success in staff training and development.  I've had great success working directly with the partners of the firm from initial project conception and design through completion of construction while simultaneously developing and running a team 1/3 the size of our local branch office.  Most important is establishing and maintaining client relationships, dynamic design and focusing on the details. I excel in multitasking and organization as well as the design and delivery of projects from their conception through completion.  I utilize both technology and hand skills in order to effectively communicate design.  I thoroughly enjoy working directly with clients and colleagues to design and develop successful projects that are both functional and beautiful, meet deadlines and budgets, and that surpass expectations.
