About 

I hold an MS in Architecture and Urban Design from New York Institute of Technology, Graduate School of Architecture & Design, where I received a scholarship and a tuition award for being a research assistant. I also have a Bachelor of Architecture from Dr. Bhanuben Nanavati College of Architecture in India, where I obtained my license as an architect. I am an associate member of the SARA (Society of American Registered Architects). My education and certifications have equipped me with the skills and knowledge to design spaces that reflect the community, culture, and context of each site.

I am passionate about creating spaces that foster a sense of community, positivity, and appreciation. I believe that design can be a powerful tool to improve the quality of life of people and the environment. I am also an avid artist who enjoys making and creating art in various mediums, especially those that are interesting, uplifting, and sustainable. I seek to express my creativity and vision through both my professional and personal projects
