About 

I am a recent graduate from Columbia University with a dual Master degree in Architecture and Advanced Architectural Design. Now that my studies are concluded, I am looking forward to applying my skills and enthusiasm for architectural design in a professional setting.

Professionally, I have been employed as a project associate by my postgraduate tutor in China where I have worked on a variety of projects in the tourism and commercial sectors. I have been highly involved in the process of site surveying, AutoCad drafting, model building and design development. Academically, my study at Columbia University and Southeast University has provided outstanding training in developing an integrative approach to designing public buildings. I have excellent communication skills and enjoy interacting with others, with the ability to work as well as a member of a team, while confident in assuming responsibility for independent work. Also I am highly skilled on latest version of Adobe Suite, Auto Cad, Rhino, and I am a quick learner on new graphic technology.
