As an architectural designer with experience in both residential and commercial design projects, I've worked on projects ranging from simple alterations to multimillion dollar projects. Working in small teams I've contributed to all phases of design from design schematics to construction documents, often being responsible drafting a large percentage of the working drawings for a project. I am comfortable with code analysis, ADA analysis, zoning regulations, as well as filings for DOB submissions. I am constantly learning more about the profession in order to excel in the field.
Aside from architecture, I teach Junior High School students on Sundays and study theology in my spare time. I believe in working towards a goal where architecture meets humanitarian needs and hope to one day use my knowledge of the profession to help impoverished society through sustainable design and modest means. Ultimately I believe the goal of architecture as a whole is to improve society domestically and globally and I plan to be part of that vision.
