About 

I am a fifth year Bachelor of Architecture student at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. I am minoring in Civil Engineering and Science, Technology & Society and have strong interests in sustainable and inclusive design. I spent the Spring 2020 semester studying off-campus at RPI's research center, the Center for Architecture Science and Ecology in Brooklyn, NY. I have interned for two different architecture offices and am looking to expand my horizons with a full time or internship position.
