About 

I am a 3nd year undergraduate architecture student at the Bernard and Anne Spitzer School of Architecture, currently pursuing my bachelor’s degree. I am enthusiastic to find a firm where I could work and apply what I learn in studio on projects to help the firm. I enjoy drafting and creating 3D modeling. In my previous experience at an architecture firm, I mostly worked on diagrams and I have become sufficient at producing those. I am also good at creating nice graphics for presentations out of drawing such as sections and elevations.

As an undergraduate student, I am new in the world of creating architecture. As such, I have many interests. I enjoy architecture on many different scales. I have a great interest in urban projects as I believe that they can be a great enabler to create community. I enjoy thinking about building design in relationship to its context and like to think about ambitious ways of altering the built environment. Lastly, I also like to look at interiors of building create ways to let the individual explore and experience in a fashion that aligns with the objectives of the interior composition.

Also, I am very interested in the social impact architecture can have. Thus, I hope that the firm that I work for has a social cause. I see architecture strongly from a perspective of the social sciences. Architecture for me is an agent of creating social settings, with the built environment as the frame work, which can effect the individual psychologically with the layout of neighborhoods and arrangement of spaces. However, by working at a firm, I hope to be able to learn more about how to make an impact and how the working conditions of the architect actually look like.

I attended this college program while I was in High School. As a result, I acquired my High School diploma at the same time as my Associates Degree. By being able to take many not architecture related classes, I was able to start the architecture program with a different lens which shapes my perception of learning architecture till this day.
