Hi! I’m Freya. I’m a highly motivated designer who has straddled the line between architecture, graphic design and landscape design for the past 5 years. I have vast experience executing designs from from concept to installation. I have great communication skills and excel at working with a team and the client to smoothly complete a project on-time and on-budget.
I received a Bachelor of Arts in Art History from Emory University and a Master of Architecture from Georgia Tech. I continue to integrate art, design, architecture and writing in my work. My practice is characterized by a consistent creative vision and an iterative approach to solving each design problem.
