Hello! My name is Ekta Patel and I am originally from Savannah, GA living in New York City for the past 4 years and willing to relocate. Although my background in Architecture has been high end residential design, I have always heavily immersed myself in the hospitality world wether it entails restaurants, hotels, bars, clubs, etc. I am open to all types of architecture as I truly believe in the learning opportunities the architectural world has to offer. Growing up, I have always been traveling to different cities or countries and the subliminal impact spaces can make on an individual that enjoys the language and feeling of the built environment is invigorating. Not only do my hobbies include physical sports activities and traveling, but trying out new restaurants, bars, & venues are common in my every day life.
