About 

Architectural designer based in New York with roughly five years of experience in small to mid-sized architecture firms.  Having graduated with a B-Tech degree from CUNY’s City College of Technology I’ve utilized technological and digital visualization tools to develop and produce architectural sets and designs.  In the field, these skills have contributed to my work as an architectural designer/drafter to an assistant project manager for a few small to mid-sized projects throughout New York City.  I’m currently seeking a position as an architectural designer to further gain experience and contribute to the growth of 3D-based design programs being utilized in the office setting.
