About 

Hi! 

I’m an architectural designer with 5+ years of experience, working on strategic design solutions with a desire to shape sustainable and functional environment. I strongly believe that designs have the power to influence an individual’s approach  and reflect a unique sense of values as they evolve over time. 

I am eager to explore new opportunities and collaborations to create designs that make a difference.
