About 

Experienced Workplace Architect + Interior Designer 

Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Bachelor of Architecture, Cum Laude

As a versatile licensed architect and certified interior designer, I have expertise in the design of high-performing workplace environments for global technology companies. Valued for my responsive work-style and lightning fast speed, I am an engaging collaborator at all phases of design through construction. Organized and thorough, I bring broad technical skills and design sensibility to the creation of construction details and design documents. My knowledge of code requirements and keen eye for detail ensure the successful implementation of design goals from concept through project completion.
