I graduated from Washington University in St. Louis with a Master of Architecture degree in December 2021. I am confident that I am one of the few who would persevere to work intelligibly and uncompromisingly until the very end on things I desire.
Having graduated from Washington University in St. Louis with a Master of Architecture degree in December 2021, I have since been working as a full-time architectural designer for 3 years. With advanced expertise in Revit as my primary 3D modeling tool, I am capable of independently developing a complete set of construction documents from scratch. My strong digital design skills are further supported by proficiency in Rhino, SketchUp, Dynamo, V-Ray, and Enscape. Additionally, I am skilled in Photoshop, AutoCAD, and Grasshopper, with hands-on experience in wood-shop tools for producing precise physical models.
