Recent M.Arch graduate and designer keen to reimagine architectural space through a social lens, searching for a full-time position. Looking to relocate and open to travel
My undergraduate studies had a concentration in Adaptive Interventions, where a close study of existing physical and social conditions, socioeconomic influences, and movement were main areas of research and inspiration.
