About 

Post-graduate from Columbia University, I was educated in Global Metropolis, A joint program of the Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation, Columbia University and Moscow Architectural Institute (MARKHI).

Trained as a global architect, I am able to address and transform larger contexts by making them more legible through analysis and expressive forms. By simultaneously working on various urban scales, I can program infrastructure, design urban systems, neighborhoods and buildings while also addressing regional and rural questions.

During my academic year in GSAPP, I have re-examined the conventional land-use strategies, city programming and building concepts since many of the existing systems are no longer capable of addressing the radically different morphologies and typologies that are shaping the contemporary urban context.
