I graduated in the spring of 2012 with a Bachelors of Science in Architecture from the Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning with a final grade point average of 3.77/4.00
During my final semester at the Taubman College, I designed a children's sense museum. My entire semester was spent investigating the architectural interior and how things such as light manipulation, material qualities, etc. can create certain atmospheres to stimulate the human senses. My project was selected to compete in the Wallenberg Competition, an annual competition held at Taubman College for students in their final semester of their undergraduate education, and was honorably mentioned at the symposium.
