I am currently a 5th year Bachelor of Architecture student at Penn State University. As a young, enthusiastic and experienced individual, I seek a company that values the integration of design disciplines in a creative.
As a young graduating architect, I hope to gain experience with various types of projects working in a collaborative and dynamic environment; by creating connections and relationships that will generate extraordinary design work.
The interchange between disciplines is vital in the design profession and is becoming easier with the evolution of BIM. As a student participating in a collaborative interdisciplinary BIM studio, I can offer digital design skills and project integration.
Sustainability is becoming increasingly important in design and to the future of the profession. As an environmentally conscious individual planning to become LEED certified after graduation.
In past internships, I have been exposed to several different design strategies along with numerous different building typologies. My experience includes knowledge and application of Autodesk Revit, AutoCAD, and the Adobe Design Suite.
As a positive and self-motivated individual, I am very opened and eager to learning any and all aspects of the field.
