About 


I have a strong passion for architecture and the ability good design has to better our planet. Architecture to me is a means for enriching human experiences and providing innovative solutions to respond to the challenges faced in the built environment with an elegant but functional design aesthetic. My primary interests in the field are in ecological design, urban design, resiliency, research, sustainability and supertall design. I am a young aspiring architect (recently graduated with a Bachelor's of Science in Architecture) seeking a position where I may sharpen and contribute my set of skills to a company’s success while gaining pertinent knowledge and experience that helps to advance my future career pursuits. My goals are to become professionally licensed long term, but until then I wish to gain adequate working experience in the design profession and further my professional education with a graduate degree in the near future.
