I am a recent graduate from the University of Notre Dame School of Architecture and am in pursuits of becoming a licensed architect. I am currently searching for full-time employment throughout the country in an architectural office contributing to the built environment in a environmentally and socially conscious manner.

University of Notre Dame, BArch, Architecture
Founded on the traditions of classical architecture, proportion, and methods, the Notre Dame School of Architecture provided me with a very thorough and valuable perspective on the relationship between architecture and the built environment. The school provides a very humane take on the practice of Architecture, illustrating the world of architecture as a collaborative practice that should benefit all: the individual, the community, the surrounding environment, and the world as a whole. Through the courses and teaching that I experienced, I am very well versed in hand drafting and drawing construction, watercolor painting, and hand rendering methods. All of these techniques are valuable on their own, but also intuitively inform my use of more modern techniques in very beneficial ways.
