Education 

Cornell University, BArch, Architecture

During my studies at Cornell University, I got the opportunity to be part of the 'Architecture as an Ensemble' Summer Program, where we traveled all summer through Eastern Europe studying the modern architecture of the 1900s. I was also part of the Cornell in Rome abroad program, living in Rome for the Fall semester of 2005.

Additionally, I was part of the 2004 Cornell University Solar Decathlon Team, which won 2nd place in the competition.

For my thesis, I designed a mobile rock concert venue.
