About 

I’ve spent the last three years in the Interior Architecture program at Ohio University gaining and expanding my body of knowledge in design. Within the program I have completed 12 total design projects whilst discovering interests in lighting design and structural functions. I have vast knowledge in programs such as AutoCad, Revit, SketchUp, Adobe Creative Suit, and Microsoft Office. 

My experience began in the first year of my program, when I received my first student work position in the Architecture Office of Design and Constructions at Ohio University. I worked alongside project managers to perform a wide range of tasks for the various projects campus wide. During the summer of 2019, I interned at Whitehall Interiors working under the design team and the production team on an array of high-rise residential projects. I was able to enhance my skills in Autocad and other programs used within the office. Along with my current employment at Mike Noel Architect as a Junior Interior Designer, I have done freelance work for a bed and breakfast in Guysville Ohio, redesigning the interior of a 19th century house.
