About 

With a Master of Design from Rhode Island School of Design, my journey as a Design Intern for 1 years at two interior/architecture firms has been marked by a fusion of technical prowess and creative flair. I've honed skills in Enscape, AutoCAD, and interior styling, ensuring each project benefits from a detail-oriented and innovative approach.

I have successfully revised interior details and produced compelling renderings, contributing to the design development with a keen understanding of materials and lighting. My commitment lies in elevating spaces with sustainability and aesthetics, as underscored by my LEED Green Associate certification.
