CURRICULUM VITAE I am an enthusiastic Bachelors graduate of architecture from the University of Kent. In my three years of study I have found a real love for architecture and design, and am now looking for a job placement following the end of my part one. Art and music have always been a large part of my life, and since I can remember I have wanted to pursue a career where I can use my creative skills. It was not until my first year of college that I considered architecture, which I saw as an opportunity for my creativity to become a reality and affect the world on a wider scale. With all of my projects I strive to be innovative and create unique, engaging architectural experiences that break from the generic.
Last year I travelled to Japan to work in an architecture design office. I experienced a whole new way of both life and design, which has inspired me greatly and I am now looking to work in an English practice before returning to University to begin my Masters Degree. I am very confident in the skills I have acquired throughout both my degree and work experience and am keen to utilise these skills to expand my knowledge and gain further practical experience. I hope to bring a fresh and unique sense of creativity with bounds of enthusiasm, passion and dedication to kick-start my architectural career.
