PROFILE

Ambitious about the multitude of scales in architecture’s operation, from contextual integration down to the detail, I hope to grow alongside a team dedicated to the experiential power of architecture. I am dependable, reliable, enthusiastic, work hard, stay busy and positive, take pride in my work, appearance, and attitude. If given the chance, I will dedicate myself to becoming an expert on your company’s mission and methods, will work diligently and seriously at whatever tasks may be asked of me, while always maintaining a caring, attentive, affable attitude to management and co-workers. I look forward to our future in creating eco-friendly, efficient, and elegant designs that benefit the community and the inhabitants.
