I am enthusiastic about architecture. Last summer, I had an internship in Beijing, involving in a high school dormitory, a kindergarten, two office projects, and a TV center to get experienced in effectively creating schematic drawings, developing the design, checking code, and communicating with clients. With a background in Wood Science and Structural Engineering, I have always been interested in material and construction details in architecture.
