About 

A Masters in Architecture, seeking full-time work in the field of architecture and planning to channelize my skills of designing for the benefit of the community.

I worked as an intern at the City of Hartford, Planning Department for 6 months in 2020. I also worked for a year as an Intern Architect in India while pursuing my final year of my bachelor’s degree and also worked on few independent projects. I have done an Interior Styling Course from the London School of Trends to venture out in the field of interiors due to my keen interest to learn more about interiors and providing clients a complete package with my architecture and interior skills.

Apart from architecture, I am also a professional abstract artist. I have done several commissions with art collectors, interior and architecture firms, and other organizations. In addition, I am an active board member of the West Hartford Art League.
