About 

I am a recent graduate of the Master’s of Architecture program at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign where I specialized in Sustainable and Responsive Architecture, Building Performance, and Fabrication. I was recognized with the Graduate Student Excellence Award thrice, and am also certified as a LEED Green Associate. I see myself emerge as an industry expert capable of integrating next-generation technologies with existing architectural processes in the years to come.

During my time as a Junior Architect, I spent 2 years on custom residential, office interiors, facade design and institutional projects where I helped develop design schemes, presentation drawings, and construction documentations. I was heavily involved in the inception, design, delivery, and implementation of these projects. My understanding of the profession has evolved through these experiences and has ingrained in me the importance of teamwork and the technical knowledge required for successful project delivery. I have extensive experience with a broad range of Building Information Modelling, Performance Analysis, and Rendering software tools like Revit Architecture, Rhino3D, DIVA, Sefaira, Enscape, V-ray, and Adobe Creative Suite.

I am interested in projects of public interest and social impact, including educational and public space projects. I am skilled at conceptualizing ideas and deploying them as tangible solutions. I have a strong sensitivity toward the user group and I am well informed about the current trends in architecture. I am always at my best when working in a team and would like to bring my talents to work for the right firm.
