About 

After 5 years in the design field and 3 years in the academic field as an adjunct lecturer, I am confident I have a strong foundation to continue growing as an Architectural Designer.

In my current position, I manage multiple residential projects in New York City and Upstate New York. My role includes production of construction documents, consultant and client coordination, product & material selection and DOB/Landmark submittals. I am highly proficient in AutoCAD & Sketchup, which I primarily use in my current position.

I am also an Adjunct Lecturer for The Bernard & Anne Spitzer School of Architecture at The City College of New York, for a ‘Site Technology’ course. In this B-Arch course, we explore the relationship between site and natural occurrences and I work with students to incorporate these factors into cohesive designs.

As a strong-willed individual with experience working with demanding deadlines, I have developed consistent organizational and management skills that I feel would be a great asset to your company.
