About 

As a Registered Architect with seven years of professional experience, I’ve worked on new buildings from conception through construction administration. The complexity of working with clients, consultants, city agencies, and contractors is an exciting juggling act that fuels my penchant for figuring things out and finding creative solutions to problems big and small.

My specialties include: Architectural Design, Project Management, Design Research, Construction Documentation, Code Analysis, with technical skills in Revit, AutoCad, Adobe Creative Suite and more. Outside of work, I love writing short stories, dancing sporadically and making recipes from the Great British Bake Off.
