About 

With a Master’s degree from the UC Berkeley and a Bachelor’s degree from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Architecture, my passionate architectural journey has taken me from New York to California and abroad to Italy, where I immersed myself in historical and modern architecture, broadening my perspective and enriching my design sensibilities.

Now, I am actively seeking a full-time architectural designer position where I can apply my diverse experiences and education to realize my design dreams. I am eager to contribute my skills to a dynamic team, working on innovative projects that push the boundaries of architecture.
