I am currently a third-year M. Arch candidate at The Weitzman School of Design. My work revolves around equitable design strategies, public integration, and the architectural performance of color. I have been featured in numerous online and printed publications such as SuckerPUNCH Daily, Pressing Matters 8, UNDER PRESSURE Urban Housing Publication, and A+D Magazine’s Impact. I have been a member of Penn Women in Design for the last three years and currently hold a PR and Marketing chair position. Currently, I am working on my thesis involving colorful and human-centered architectural interventions in West Philadelphia. I have won numerous awards throughout my academic career from my interests in writing, mentorship, and image-making. These include the E. Lewis Dales Traveling Fellowship and the Weitzman School of Design diversity scholarship. Most recently, my work and portfolio were selected by Metropolis Magazine as a Figure100 Competition winner.
I am currently searching for a full-time architectural designer position where I can become an asset to a team and maintain my focus towards licensure.
