Architectural Designer with two years of professional experience employed at a highly accredited engineering firm in Tucson AZ. Currently employed at Schraufnagel Development LLC as a construction laborer specializing in residential projects. My goal is to integrate practical, hands-on experience in general contracting and construction with my architectural design expertise to create more effective and informed architectural solutions.
From 2022 to 2024, I held an Architectural Designer position at M3 Engineering & Technology Corp that focused on industrial design, BIM modeling, and construction documents. Exploring innovative and emergent software & technology, with the goal of enhancing deliverable quality, also played a crucial role for marketing and design workflow efficiency purposes.
I am a Spring 2022 graduate from the University of Arizona, holding a Bachelor's degree in Architectural Design from one of the top 25 architectural design schools in the nation.
My key professional skills include drafting, LiDAR scanning technology, and proficiency in Autodesk (Revit, AutoCAD, Recap, Navisworks) and Adobe (Photoshop, Illustrator, Acrobat, Premiere, InDesign). Additionally, I have practical construction skills in framing, installation, and ensuring design alignment with quality control.
I aspire to contribute to innovative designs that enhance energy efficiency, attention to detail, and urban development, ultimately creating lasting positive impacts on the built environment.
I look forward to connecting with professionals who share a passion for advancing the field of architecture, construction, and overall design.

Critical Practice Lab Collaborative Award, Award
This class involved the investigation of integrating local materials and vernacular design to construct a marketplace, hospital kiosk, cafe/kitchen, and classroom/office for residents in Moyo, Uganda. The design was shaped around supporting local work opportunities, classes for developing varying skills, and collecting/utilizing renewable resources to maintain the facility condition.
This course focused on the educational objectives upon the construction of a single-family residence row house for the University of Arizona. The project site is located on the south edge of the university campus and the Historic Rincon Heights neighborhood on 7th Street and Warren. In addition to the goals of strong design and craftsmanship, the project intentions include goals for energy and water
conservation.
