About 

I’m a recent graduate from the Graduate 2 yr Program at USC school of architecture.  I have about 4 years of office experience since I earned my B.Arch from Texas Tech in 2018, two years in healthcare and two years in retail. In my two years of experience in healthcare, the Healthcare team was two people, the Project Architect and I, I dealt with clients, engineers, and drafted all the sets. In my two years in retail, I set up Revit standards for sets and models. In my four years I gained a lot of experience working alongside team leaders and leading smaller projects with little supervision.

My artistic pursuits drive my architectural vision. Raised in Texas with Lebanese and Syrian heritage, I bring a unique cultural perspective to my passion for architecture. When you look through my portfolio, it's evident
