I graduated from the Master of Science in Advanced Architectural Design program at the Weitzman School of Design at the University of Pennsylvania. Through my education, I have gained proficiency in various 3D modeling software such as Rhino, Sketchup, and Revit, alongside adeptness with tools like Adobe Creative Suite and CAD. Additionally, I am skilled in utilizing Grasshopper for site pre-analysis and subsequent design refinement. As a quick learner, I thrive in fast-paced work settings and am eager to continually enhance my skill set.
My work experience has exposed me to various aspects of architecture which made me develop a solid understanding of translating design concepts into detailed construction documents. My most recent experience at SPARCHS has honed my ability to navigate the design-to-construction phase, ensuring the seamless execution of architectural plans and adherence to industry standards. Aesthetics are not a priority in the residential industry, where spatial utility tends to dominate. Nevertheless, projects such as the Pink-post, a muti-stories residential project have challenged me to appreciate the dualities in architecture, understand feasibilities, and value collaborative design and teamwork. It also strengthened my skills in spatial planning, interior detailing, and material selection, all of which are vital for creating both functional and aesthetically pleasing spaces.
