About 

I recently graduated with a Bachelor of Architecture from California Polytechnic State University in San Luis Obispo, California, and I am looking for full-time employment.

Employment 

Maginniss + del Ninno Architects, Alexandria, VA, Design Intern

I worked on several projects, including high schools and a town house community, in different stages of development ranging from schematic design to construction documents. I also helped develop presentations and drawings for several competitions.
My main tasks were drafting in CAD, modeling in Revit, and developing drawings and diagrams, and the primary programs I used were AutoCAD, Revit, and Adobe Creative Suite.

Education 

California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo, San Luis Obispo, CA, US, BArch, Architecture

My academic experience at Cal Poly has given me the chance to design projects ranging in scale from a small, intimate program of a slow-wash laundry, to a large, 150,000 square foot mixed-use housing and marketplace, to full-scale, inhabitable installations.

I also completed a minor in Architectural Engineering, taking additional courses in steel, timber, and masonry design.
