I am a licensed architect and urban designer with more than 6 years of experience. My passion is in creating resilient communities and innovative architecture that is contextually cohesive. The foundation of my work is in urban development, institutional design, and multi-family. Building sustainable live+work spaces, promoting environmental stewardship, and optimizing for affordability has always
been my utmost priority. Practicing at different scales, programs, and scopes has allowed me to balance between the qualitative and quantitative. Engagements with a multitude of disciplines and agencies have required me to develop exceptional organizational abilities and management skills. Lastly, I believe in fostering collaborative environments for better creativity, productivity, and design.
