About 

I have 2 years of professional experience in architecture design, Including a full-time architectural designer position and three internship positions. I am also in the progress of the professional licensure process. During my tenure as a junior designer, I worked on a variety of housing projects, academic school projects, and commercial mixed projects.

My expansive skill set includes digital conceptual design using Rhino, Revit, Adobe, and Grasshopper at an advanced level, Physical modeling, and 3d printing. I also have a combined 2-year research experience and 2-year working experience in the school. These experiences gave me the diversity of architectural knowledge beneficial to my design and created a fun and highly collaborative environment to work with a team. I enjoy a challenge and am never tired of learning new things.
