As a graduate of Drexel University's six-year Architecture program, I was afforded the unique opportunity to gain full-time work experience while in school. While at Drexel, I continued a competitive figure skating career and represented Team USA in international competition, and competed at the 2010 U.S. Nationals-- the Olympic trials. Completing a year-long thesis project, working at an architecture firm, and continuing to pursue one of my passions taught me great discipline, time management skills, and the ability to multitask. In the fall of 2010 I took the opportunity to join to a professional ice skating show, Holiday on Ice, which toured Europe for 14 months. Traveling over 50 cities and 14 countries, I was able to witness marvelous architecture, thriving urban environments of varying scales, and experience different cultures. I am currently looking for full-time employment in the New York Area.
