About 

My love for design developed from an inherited appreciation for craftsmanship, something my dad took great pleasure in while I was growing up. As a result of this appreciation, over the years I have been able to develop an eye for a variety of home styles. Now that I have graduated, my design skills have been fine-tuned and expanded to include projects for residential, commercial, institutional, hospitality, and healthcare design.  My primary focus is residential design; in which I have extensive experience working on many projects during my internship with Bluemotif Architecture. Some of these projects also include hospitality collaborations with The Guild Hotel, The Jade Dragon, Crack Shack Santa Monica, Crack Shack Pasadena, and Crack Shack La Jolla. Working on these projects provided me the opportunity to gain invaluable experience with design teams that pushed me to develop strong leadership, and public speaking skills.
