Continuously aspiring to embody the essence of a multifaceted individual and designer, I embrace roles that allow me to be a critical thinker, adept problem solver, collaborative team player, community leader, and always a creative.
I currently work in the construction industry in New York City as an architectural designer and have overseen a diverse portfolio of projects that has encompassed high-end residential, amenities & building service renovations, fitness centers, retail and corporate interiors, institutional work, and single-family ground-ups. I actively engage in using sustainable materials and demonstrate expertise in overseeing projects of varying scales, with responsibilities spanning design conceptualization, detailed planning, and construction management.
I have a strong technical understanding of 3D modeling and rendering software, including AutoCAD, Sketchup, Revit, Rhino, V-Ray and the entire Adobe suite, and a passion for progressive technology that include real-time rendering and 3D-printing. In addition to my architectural pursuits, I have had the privilege of studying Studio Art, Film/Media, worked in corporate marketing, gained hands-on experience through school assistantships, and volunteered my time for the RISD alumni community, which has provided me with a valuable & well-rounded understanding of various aspects of the design world.
I remain dedicated to an ongoing development of my own skill and am eager to explore new opportunities for growth.
