About 

Design professional with a Master's degree focused in Interior Architecture from Arizona State University, Bachelor of Arts in Horticulture from Texas A&M University, certified Architectural Drafter and part time professor at Phoenix College.


I am passionate about sustainability and therapeutic architecture. My inspiration for design is derived from my background in horticulture. I have found that research and innovation has been influenced by nature itself, and I have adopted this concept into my personal projects.
