I am a graduate student pursuing my M.Arch at the Rhode Island School of Design. I received my Bachelors degree in English with honors from Wesleyan University in 2016 and worked at Kohn Pedersen Fox Associates as a Marketing Coordinator and Architectural Technician from 2018-2021. I'm seeking full-time positions beginning June of 2024. I would like to grow into a role in which I can apply a combination of design and project management thinking to exciting architectural challenges.

I received my B.A. from Wesleyan with honors in English. My studies culminated with a senior thesis investigating the effect of baseball as a topic on metageneric commentary in literature. This project was built on my interest in baseball as a community building structure in early to mid 20th century Brooklyn, as well as my interest in the hybridity between creative non-fiction and the fantastic. I also studied photography, practicing both film and digital printing; architecture, philosophy, religion, poetry and history.
