About 

I am currently seeking career opportunities as an Intermediate Architect with an industry respected and established architectural design firm in the New York Metropolitan area.
My 12 years of international and domestic experience as a Designer and Project Architect has provided me the opportunity to work on a range of different project types and scales. I have collaborated with various individuals and design professionals, including but not limited to Structural, MEP, Civil Engineers, Landscape Architects and
Contractors. Most recently during my time at Perkins-Eastman I worked on a large-scale multi-family residential waterfront development, which has given me an invaluable understanding of New York planning codes and the importance of teamwork, compromise and solutions that work best for the project and the greater community.

I take pleasure in gaining new experiences and overcoming new challenges. I am eager to design, create and build beautiful buildings and desire to take my skills to a higher level.

In my personal life I am a passionate volleyball player, photographer, world traveler, hiker, biker, runner and overall very active and interested person.

I consider myself a very social person and enjoy meeting new people. Diving into new experiences is something I seek out in both my personal and professional life.
