About 

I am a recent graduate from the University of Florida's Masters of Architecture program with a focus in sustainability and interests in revitalization projects, detail oriented projects, urban design, and teaching. 

Employment 

University of Florida, Gainesville, FL, US, Graduate Teaching Assistant - Design 1 and 2

I introduced basic design tools, including sketching, conceptual development, and analysis to first year architecture students. The emphasis in the first semester was on modelling a three-dimensional condition through the study of design basics: the cube, the matrix, and the merged condition. The second semester focused on design through drawing, although each project incorporated a three-dimensional making as part of the analysis. In addition to teaching, responsibilities included grading, one on one discussions with students, and developing assignments based on curriculum requirements.
