This past May,2021 I received my M.Arch. from the University at Buffalo – State University of New York. Prior to coming to UB, I owned a small firm in Ghaziabad, India that worked on mixed-use, multifamily, commercial, industrial and residential projects. We took on all phases of design ranging for small, medium and large-scale projects. I have also worked on site master planning for large multifamily housing, education and healthcare projects in professional settings. Both my academic and professional exposure has helped to refine my abilities to produce quality designs work, presentation drawings and construction/working drawings by utilizing CAD, SketchUp, Adobe Creative cloud suite. I also have basic proficiency in REVIT and Rhino. In addition, my practice in India gave me strong practical knowledge of construction and materials.
