I am a recent graduate from SCI-Arc, living in Miracle Mile and working towards starting my career here in Los Angeles.
I originally obtained an undergraduate degree in civil engineering from New Mexico Tech and a master’s degree in architecture from the University of North Carolina, Charlotte. During my architecture education, I completed numerous extracurricular research and design projects and received several awards for my accomplishments. I then spent a year at SCI-Arc finishing a postgraduate and developing further projects with various small teams through the pandemic.
My experience includes extensive collaboration, design iteration and feedback, effective communication, academic research and analysis, the usual suite of software – Autodesk, Revit, Rhino, Adobe, and Microsoft Office – as well as Unreal Engine 4, Twine, and Trello. I am eager to leverage my academic and professional skills as a part of a team and surround myself with people as passionate about the field as I am.
I am more than happy to answer any questions and discuss my qualifications or past work.
