Employment

I was working as a Junior Architect in Design Concepts in Dubai, United Arab Emirates where I handled projects independently. I worked on Residential and Commercial towers, schools and warehouses. This opportunity increased my confidence and faith in my architectural skills and encouraged me to obtain intricate knowledge in my field.

During the course of my internship, I developed various designs as well as conceptualised designs. I worked on projects like Ajfan Villa Complex consisting of more than thousand villas, had my hands on Dubai Immigration Headquarters at conceptual designing stage and also conceptualized the Podium parking for Luxury Residential Tower in Dubai. My contribution on Hotel and Residential Tower - a Super-structure of 4 Basements + Ground + 2 Podiums + 44 floors + 2 Mechanical Roof Tops was immense and well appreciated where I prepared presentations, formulated design options and prepared bills of quantities.

University of Mumbai, Mumbai, IN, High School, B.Arch

Creating a piece of art out of scratch is like giving life and value to something immaterial earlier. Since childhood I have loved to create various objects, may it be a simple drawing or a building made up of cards. Over the years, due to this childhood predilection and a strong base in Physics, I realised that Architecture was the perfect profession for me. In 2010, I was admitted on merit to the "Academy of Architecture", University of Mumbai, in India.
Throughout my undergraduate education i evolved as an Architect.
