About 

I am a recent graduate from Savannah College of Art and Design.  I am eager to begin an internship that will allow me to begin to fulfill IDP requirements for NCARB.  I have 3 years experience in Aerospace working with Gulfstream G450 and G5 aircraft reading and interpreting schematic blueprints and engineering skin maps for exterior sheet metal skin systems.  I also have experience in construction and carpentry and am skilled in architectural rendering and drafting.  I am fun and ambitious and hope for nothing more than the oportunity to begin making real buildings with real architects in a contemporary urban setting.  Thank you for taking the time to read my profile.
