About 

I am interior architect with 15+ years of experience in architectural and interior design projects. I have specialized in Educational, Commercial and Tenant Improvement projects. My skills and experience consist in development and full understanding of construction documentation, code analysis, space planning, coordination with consultants and responsible for construction administration. I enjoy learning about architecture, materials and methods and figuring out details and space planning issues for projects. 

 My experience and preference falls more in the technical side of design. I am a self-directed, efficient designer with a good eye for detail and I have great organizational and management skills.

 I hold certifications in the following; NCIDQ, LEED AP and CDT. I am a current member of NCARB and am in the process of taking my ARE exams. 

I am well versed in the following programs; AutoCAD, Revit, Bluebeam, Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator. And I have a basic understanding of Adobe InDesign and Lightroom.
