About 

I'm a second-year graduate student in Architecture, from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. I expect to obtain my master degree on May 15th, 2017, and currently looking for a junior architect job.

During my seven-year architectural study life, I studied hard and learned a lot, I also have valuable experience both in practical jobs and research area. I won AIA Chicago student awards 3rd place, Earl Prize 2nd Place, and other nominations; I also helped my professor published a paper to Plea 2017 two weeks ago. All the things above I believe are evidence of my efforts and also a reflection of my professional level. You may know more about my projects through this link, https://issuu.com/geliyuan/docs/samples_issuu

I always have great passion in architecture and try to offer better solutions for social problems through architectural method. Please let me you if you have any interest in me.
