Hello, my name is Yin To Wong and I am a 21-year old aspiring architect!
Ever since I was young, I have had a long-standing interest
in design, having the ability to shape the way we live our lives. After
studying at university, I maintain my interest in being able to design and
am very interested in designing environmentally and socially engaging spaces and architecture.

- Independently led the EcoVillage project and Cob Cottage project, performing research and keeping the project manager constantly up-to-date with
weekly developments to produce 3 different designs.
- Designed 6 different parametric structures together with my project manager in Rhinoceros, helping to produce a construction document for the project to be built and used for the 'Chaharshanbe Suri' event.

Peter Yi, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Reserach Member
- Led and worked collaboratively with others throughout 2 semesters to complete 20 Rhino models complete with texture mapping, ensuring that file
sizes 200mb+ in Rhinoceros did not affect workflow efficiency.
- Applied modeling, drafting, and texture mapping techniques into Rhino throughout 4 semesters to help produce digital models ready for digital
representation.
- Learned and immediately implemented animation through Bongo 2 in Rhinoceros, helping produce 20 separate fly-through animations of different
spaces, and ensured that learning software would not affect workflow.
- Contributed into a presentation in which we showed our work to 3 different professionals in the field with interest in housing architecture typology,
as well as producing a 5-minute presentation to present to other UROP students.
- Produced a plan, reference drawings, and helped build an 8-part formal model to allow me and my research partner to efficiently complete the construction of the scaled model, ensuring that they are able to come apart and together again whilst highlighting significant moments within the architecture.
Fireside Cafe, MDining, Retail
- Trained and worked in 7 different roles at Fireside Cafe and Michigan Dining within a month, ranging from the help in preparation of food, serving,
customer service, and open and clean-up of shop.
- Made decisions and worked together alongside co-workers in different roles to efficiently complete tasks and compensate for difficulties faced along
the way, ensuring customers are served even during double the concentration of people.
- Adapted to ensure tasks can be efficiently done individually for 4 hour+ shifts, learning new tasks needed in the moment in compensation of the lack of available help, ensuring efficiency whilst serving and preparing food is kept even in busy hours.
