Seeking a position, where I can utilize my education and skills in an environment of designers who think beyond the everyday experience of life and whose spatial awareness is the catalyst to continuous conversations about aesthetics and design. Having been trained in the design of large scale spaces with an emphasis on exploring complete solutions to environmental, interior and architectural challenges, I have a strong awareness of the design process and realize the importance of creating and maintaining a solid relationship between the designer and client.
