I have recently completed my Master of Architecture degree from the University of Virginia in May of 2012. Now I am beginning to craft a career where I feel that I can constantly broaden and push my skills as a designer in a professional environment. I am excited about the prospect of contributing to architectural projects that are innovative and inspirational while also providing practical solutions to real circumstances.
I believe that the most enlightening and beneficial experiences in design come through collaboration. What I aspire to gain from any professional position is a chance to work closely as part of a collaboration with other creative minds in analysis and response to real-world projects, issues, and situations.
I became a designer because I am passionate about the prospect of changing the built environment in a way that ensures a better future for life, human and otherwise, on this planet.
