Education 

North Carolina State University, Raleigh, NC, US, Masters, Masters of Landscape Architecture

I am enrolled in a 3-year Master's of Landscape Architecture program and NC State University. The design studio is the core of the educational experience.

The first year and a half focus on the fundamentals of landscape architecture culminating in a design development studio focused on developing construction drawings. The second year and a half focus on the application of theory in a design-build studio, a urban design studio, and a city design studio.

As a supplement to my Master's degree, I am pursuing a certificate in GIS. This is a powerful tool for understanding complex urban landscapes.

I currently hold a 4.0 GPA and have received numerous awards for my work including a National ASLA award of Excellence in Communication, and a NC ASLA award of Honor an Merit (2012) for my graduate work.
