About 

I am an accomplished Interior Designer with a Bachelor's of Fine Arts in Interior Design from Berkeley College, graduating in 2020. Currently, I am pursuing my Master of Architecture degree at New Jersey Institute of Technology, further expanding my knowledge and skills in the field.

With a comprehensive understanding of architectural principles, I possess the expertise to handle various design tasks. In addition to my proficiency in residential and commercial designs, I bring valuable experience in architectural drafting.

Equipped with a strong command of software such as AutoCAD, SketchUp, Rhino, Vray Revit, Enscape, Photoshop, and Microsoft Office, I can seamlessly translate conceptual ideas into precise, detailed designs. This allows me to create visually striking and functional spaces that meet the unique needs of clients.

Driven by the belief that design profoundly impacts our lifestyle and quality of life, I am passionate about crafting environments that improve the way we live and interact. By blending creativity with technical expertise, I consistently strive to create spaces that enhance user experience and foster a sense of well-being.

To summarize, my qualifications extend beyond my formal education, as I am currently pursuing a Master of Architecture degree, enabling me to apply advanced design techniques. Alongside my expertise in interior design, I also possess strong architectural drafting skills, making me a versatile and valuable asset to any project.
