About 

As a person who is interested in science, technology and art, I describe my character as an active and diverse woman. Being an architect with a flair for the arts, having technical aptitude and an interest in management, also have a passion for traveling and understanding different cultures in the world, all these elements, have given me a broad outlook, with varying degrees of knowledge in a range of topics. 

As an architect and designer, I have been involved in different stages of diverse architectural and interior design projects from schematic design, design development, detail design, and architecture supervision during the construction stage as well.

Main duties as an architect have included participating actively in the meetings with clients, sub consultants, contractors and engineers from other divisions, and designing diverse building types, throughout concept and schematic design to more developed and detailed stages, also providing construction documents and site inspection. Developing and delivering progress reports, proposals, requirement, documentation and presentation. Preparing weekly status reports.

During 6 years of collaboration with architectural firms, I have had the opportunity of working on different stages of varied projects, including Office Buildings, Mixed-Use Complex, Retails, University Campus, Residential buildings, as well as  renovation and interior design projects.

High ability to operate computer software such as AutoCAD, Adobe Photoshop, Microsoft Office and Autodesk Revit 2014.
