I arrive with over 8 years of experience in AutoCAD design and drafting. After graduating with my BA in Interior Design I went to work for Marrokal Design were I started their AutoCAD division, eventually training two new members on the office standards I created. At the end of 3yrs with Marrokal I was taking an active role in the design of residential remodels and additions.  I then moved to Interior Architecture where I gained experience in commercial projects. Specifically I worked for 2 years on a Kaiser Hospital coordinating with architects, project managers, and construction managers. Finally before I decided to return for my MA in Architecture I was working at A New Kitchen a small residential remodeling firm where I got the opportunity to take projects through the entire process. I was not only able to work directly with the client in the design of their remodel but also create the CD’s, acquire permits, manage the budget, purchase materials, schedule inspections, and coordinate subcontractors.

Recently I have been working full time at Artisan Builders while I obtain my Masters at New School of Architecture. After this summer’s break I have only to complete my thesis and will be graduating in the spring. While at New School I have gained extensive experience in Rhino, Revit, and presentation software including the Adobe Suite, as well as, a good base in architectural design knowledge.
