about
I am a recent graduate from Pratt Institute with a degree in Master of Architecture. My design interests lean towards contextual design along with an integration in sustainability. I am preparing for the LEED Green Associate Exam in order to elevate and complement my interest in sustainability. I am extremely passionate about what I do and I am looking forward to a challenging and exciting career opportunity towards the path to licensure.
