About 

I am currently studying architecture and very interested in the design world. I love architectural buildings, furniture, interior spaces, product design, and fashion design. I take joy in finding the unique stylings that each field can showcase. For my future career, I want to be able to immerse myself in all of these design opportunities so I can become a well-rounded designer that is inspired by the world around us. While I have not had any work experience, I am confident that I will succeed in quickly learning what I need to do and more. I am proficient knowledge in Autocad. I have proficient knowledge Illustrator, Photoshop, and Indesign. For 3d modeling, I generally use Revit for BIM models and Sketchup for basic design work.
