About 

Worked in different architectural related fields since I have graduated from Otis College of Art and Design majoring in Architecture, Landscape and Interior Design, I believe experiences in different fields would give me a clearer understanding of how projects are puzzled together, which would benefit future projects.  Since graduation, I have worked on a wide range of projects that differs in scales and complexities: from local single houses to world renounced City Center in Las Vegas, TDIC Headquarters in Abu Dhabi and Hyatt Regency in Wuxi, China, etc.

I played major supportive roles with wide range of responsibilities, such as graphic designer, CAD designer and assistant project manager.  I work primarily with AutoCad and Photoshop to generate materials needed for all phases of the projects.  That would include conceptual colored drawings, schematic and design development CAD drawings along with presentation quality renderings to express the design intention.  I bring the design into construction documents and make sure the design intentions work fine with reality.  I display strong dedication and talent and have contributed to successful completion of deadlines of any-scale projects.  I am always more than willing to put in more than 100%.

I understand my work experiences might not able to show my design ability.  On the other hand, my school works would be far too simple to express my experiences.  Therefore, I have spent some time and worked on part of a school project, "Oasis Spa and Resort" and input the knowledge that I have learned from in the past few years, hoping that can show my creativity a bit more clearly.
