About 

I am a recent graduate from the University of Science, Malaysia with a Master's degree in Architecture. During my study of Architecture, I mainly focused on establishing connections between routine life, people, nature, spaces with architecture, and how they can change people's experiences of space. I believe that evaluating the relationship between local activities with nature of the site is a fundamental step in design and this, instilled a mindset in me towards actively observing and identifying the behaviors that a design would generate, its impact on our culture, and to foster better human interactions in our society.
