I am an Intern Architect with a diverse educational background and two years of experience in Architectural Design. I am always seeking to broaden my design base and refine my creative methodology in Architecture. I enjoy the creative process of turning imagination into useful, habitable space.
Being the only architectural employee at a small startup firm, I have quickly developed a range of skills as a designer and as a professional because I am involved in all areas of a project's design and realization process.
