About 

Passionate and creative Architectural Designer with over 4 years experience in Architecture and Industrial Design. My positive attitude and eagerness to learn are qualities that make me very comfortable working as part of a team, but also independently. I had the opportunity to be involved in the different phases of the construction process for projects including Commercial, Offices and Airport facilities. My responsibilities include design, construction documentation & administration, and client follow up. I am pursuing the goal of becoming a licensed architect and continue growing within the profession.

Education 

Ecole Nationale Superieure d'Architecture de Paris La Villette, Paris, France, Masters, Architecture

During my studies, I took a variety of courses, including a degree project developed in Istanbul. The site analysis, the urban context, the lifestyles, and the landscape enhancement, are for me essentials to design spaces.

Istanbul, Turkey :
After having met students and local architects, we have analyzed the characteristics of this city, at the crossroads of Europe: History, geography, architecture, but also people, lifestyles, relationship to the landscape and the Bosphorus, transportation .. .
From this analysis, an urban project was developed in collaboration with two other students, on a semester.
Then, everyone decided to explore a key point of the urban project, with the common theme: The transportation.
The project was supervised by Didier REBOIS, architect, teacher at ENSAPLV, General Secretary EUROPAN Europe, urban expert at Institut pour la Ville en Mouvement IVM.
