About 

I hold a Master of Science in Architecture from Penn State University, specializing in sustainability. My passion lies in driving forward eco-friendly practices within the construction industry. My thesis analyzes design parameters' impact on concrete volume and carbon emissions. During my tenure as a specialized intern at KPF in NY, I refined my data analysis and sustainability research skills within the Environmental Performance team.

With a background as a self-motivated architectural designer from Iran, I offer a blend of industry experience and strong interpersonal skills to any team.
