About 

I am a Professional Bachelor of Architecture Candidate at the University of Texas seeking full-time employment following my anticipated gradutation this May. I am planning to relocate outside of Texas.


This semester, I am working hard as a member of the Gulf Coast Design Lab by collaborating with Ecology Action to design and build an outdoor classroom to benefit local schools, as well as provide shelter along a common walking trail. Construction is on-going.


My experience interning allowed me to work from three locations: a large office in Chicago, a satellite office in Austin, and a mid-size office in D.C..

This past year, I have been finishing my architecture degree, serving in a restaurant, and volunteering my design skills to various NGOs that support causes that I care about.
