About 

I recently graduated from Parsons School of Design with a major in Architecture Design and a minor in Creative Entrepreneurship. With prior years of experience in medicinal architecture, I am now eager to advance my career in New York and have impactful contributions to the field of architecture.

My passion for architecture drives my commitment to sustainable design, and I am actively pursuing certifications and licensing to further enhance my expertise. Throughout my academic and professional journey, I have demonstrated ambition, hard work, organization, and excellent time management skills. I thrive in both collaborative environments and independent problem-solving situations.
