I have held positions in a mixed bag of design fields. Currently, I am pursuing my continuation with landscape architecture. My short term goal is to work with a design firm in an urban environment and become a registered landscape architect as quickly as possible.
My goal in landscape architecture is to use sustainable methods to create spaces where large groups of people can interact with each other and their surroundings. I am excited by architecture, urban environments such as waterfronts, parks, streetscapes, and plazas.
