About 

Currently a freelance Architectural Designer with a Masters of Architecture from Pratt Institute and a BA in Architecture from Lehigh University. I've worked for architecture and design firms that range in size and scope of work, but I am consistently passionate about adaptive reuse and historical retellings through architecture, as well as exploring material reuse and building with nature. I enjoy drawing, writing and traveling.
