Recently graduated, (phew!), with a B.Arch from NYIT's Manhattan Campus. I'm an easy going professional with a dedicated and determined work ethic. Currently driven to increase my professional abilities to expand my role in the office and work toward professional registration as well as LEED certification. Concurrently expanding my software abilities by revisiting older studio projects and documenting them digitally. I enjoy learning and experimenting with new software, and have taught myself most of what am currently proficient in.

Classes range from 5 years of Design Studios, Structures, Environmental Site Planning, Furniture design, Environmental Building Systems, City Planning, and probably most important an elective class in evaluating New World Wine.
Throughout design studio, I took on the role of a leader of my studio, from coordinating class site models and activities, as well as becoming a trusted colleague to help answer questions and bounce design ideas off of. My design and work ethic earned the respect of the faculty as I had been chosen to represent my studio at our end of semester exposition 6 out of my 10 semesters.
