I am a B.Arch student at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, set to graduate in May 2025. With 8 years of experience in political organizing and 5 years of architectural education, I am passionate about urban planning and am actively seeking positions in the public sector. My unique background as a climate activist combines a strong foundation in architecture with a deep understanding of community engagement and policy advocacy, equipping me to contribute effectively to urban development initiatives.
