I'm currently a senior at Western Michigan University. I will be graduating in April 2014 with a Bachelor's of Science in Interior Design, and a minor in General Business. I am currently an interior design intern at SKP Design, focusing on expanding my knowledge of commercial design.
As a child I fell in love with abstract art and painting. In highschool, I took my first drafting class and realized interior design and architecture was something I could thrive at. My designs are inspired by my love of fine arts, painting, music, and photography. In the future, I plan to become NCIDQ and LEED certified, and pursue a career in commercial design.
Design Philosophy:
Form & Function should cohesively inform design. Creativity, intellect, and sustainability should improve the lives of the end user.
