About 

I served as an architectural intern throughout my academic studies. Additionally, I worked as an urban design intern with the City of Atlanta Department of City Planning. Since moving to the tri-state area, I’ve been working as an architectural contractor. I assist in the design development and construction documents for single-family residential, mixed-used, K-12, and commercial buildings. I have demonstrated comfort and fluency with various 3D modeling/rendering, and presentation software programs, which include Revit, AutoCAD, Rhino, Sketch-Up, and Adobe Suite. Exceptional marketing, communication, organization, project management skills.
