About 

With 7 years of architectural training, I have honed my skills in design, structures, construction, and environmental systems. In studios ranging from social or urban involvement to landscape and façade explorations, I have gained the expertise to develop iterative and generative designs, supported by detailed architectural drawings and appealing representations with efficiency.

My technical proficiency in 3D and rendering programs is complemented by a wide range of artistic interests. The diverse visual training has cultivated for me a keen eye for aesthetics and craftsmanship – the combination of artistic creativity and technical execution has made me an interdisciplinary problem solver.
