About

After completing my comprehensive architectural education in France and the United States, I gained experience at Kazuyo Sejima + Ryue Nishizawa / SANAA and ODA NEW YORK, where I familiarized myself with international and multidisciplinary teams on medium to large scale projects such as the new Louvre Museum in Lens (France),420 Kent in Brooklyn, NY (USA), The Bedford Hotel in Brooklyn, NY (USA) and more recently the Beth Rivka School Extension in Brooklyn, NY (USA).

Skilled in drafting design development and construction documents using CAD or Revit. Committed team player, self-starter who goes above and beyond to ensure goals are accomplished.

I am a lawful permanent resident in the United States.
