I am a young designer based in Los Angeles, currently working in the commercial architecture industry. Having graduated with a Bachelors of Architecture in 2016, I have three years of experience across several disciplines of design. Having worked for a larger multidisciplinary firm, I have excelled by making myself a malleable designer, open to taking on tasks in whichever field required the most help. This experience in itself has been invaluable in developing multiple aspects of my capabilities and overall approach to design challenges and solutions. I have experience working with our architecture, structural, urban design, and interiors sectors, performing tasks involving a range of work from branding/graphic design to more technical tasks with construction documents and administration. I have been fortunate enough to have had an introduction to the career field that has exposed me to a variety of design experiences that have grown my portfolio and abilities as both a designer and employee.
