About 

I have served in many different roles and used my organizational ability to manage and coordinate multiple projects concurrently with demanding deadlines. I lead projects from programming and schematic design to construction documents. My strong design skills helped establish solutions for all project phases using CAD, Sketchup, Vray, Adobe Suite, and Revit. My experience has helped me to develop strong communication skills with presentations not only to our clients but also to various neighborhood councils.

I am eager to grow and learn from my team as well as teach others from my experiences. My passion stems from learning and understanding the ‘why’ and I believe that has helped my development in my career and I’m confident it makes me a strong candidate and a valuable asset to any team.

I am currently taking my exams for licensure.
