Hello!! I am a final undergraduate student in the final year of my architecture program at SPA Bhopal. My interests include the exploration of diverse cultures, a deep understanding of global dynamics, and the continuous pursuit of innovative techniques. Throughout my academic journey in architecture, I have had the privilege of consistently encountering new and enlightening experiences. My six-month internship experience has been a pivotal phase in my academic journey. It has not only enriched my personal growth but also honed my ability to collaborate within a team and effectively coordinate with vendors. Furthermore, this invaluable experience has enabled me to acquire proficiency in various software tools and has deepened my understanding of the inner workings of a professional architectural firm.
