Hello! I am a recent Master of Science in Sustainable Design graduate who also obtained both my graduate degree and B.Arch degree from Carnegie Mellon University.
Growing up in 3 different countries that varied greatly from one another, I came to recognize and appreciate the role of nature in our built environment and our social fabric. Through my pursuit of sustainability in architectural practice, I have developed a passion for social resilience, circular economy, systems thinking, ecological design, and computational simulations in architectural practice. I strive to integrate these different aspects into my work to produce a positive impact environmentally and socially.
My current on-going two year-long thesis focus on developing vocabulary, evaluation criteria, and architectural strategies to implement building program externalization to design in social and environmental resiliency.
I am an Ecodistrict AP, and am currently working on my LEED AP as well.
