Education 

Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design, Milwaukee, WI, US, Bachelors, Interior Architecture + Design

In 2011, I enrolled into the Interior Architecture + Design program at MIAD, which focuses on three areas: Interior, architecture, and furniture design. While learning building and construction techniques, I developed an ability to solve spatial problems with solutions that are both creative and functional. I also studied sculpture and communication design. This combination of design disciplines enhanced my multifaceted skillset that goes from architecture to fine art to graphic design. I am able to think critically. I care about understanding what I am creating and why, then articulate those ideas to others through my work.
