I love designing in 3D. As an art major in college, the challenge of taking an abstract concept or idea and turning it into an idea about physical space was an exciting one, which is what led me to my interest in architecture and interiors.
In general, I would say I am a very "chill" person, with a calm and collected mentality. I have always been the one to calm others down in a stressful situation, and this ability allows me to work well under pressure and to lead others in an organized fashion, both as a studio group member and TA in grad school and as a team leader at Stevens.
I am a problem-solver at heart, as well as a logical thinker (I also majored in math). When I identify a problem, I want to fix it, and I enjoy the process of struggling to find a better solution or more systemic way of doing things.
Other than architecture, I am interested in all forms of art, including graphic design, sculpture, painting, and tattoo design. I also am an open-minded person, and I love to travel. I love being immersed in new cultures and constantly learning new things. I think I have learned the most about myself, my art, and my country, as well as the rest of the world, through traveling.
