Professional Summary
As a keen learner, I always endeavor to push the envelope and expand my knowledge and skills. Architecture has enabled me to combine my abilities to understand how a person feels in a space with my innate creativity. Education has exposed me to the processes of integrated design and I am passionate about combining architecture, urban planning, and sustainable design to create projects that are environmentally responsible and correctly address clients' needs. I explore and experiment with numerous materials, forms and structures to understand their properties. I relish the opportunity to work on projects that enhance the well-being of people, stimulate their relationship with their surroundings, and bring social justice. My academic and professional experience has allowed me to improve my professional and computer skills, and better understand the design process. I am a self-motivated and hard-working individual and I do my best when participating in collaborative projects. I seize every opportunity to further develop my passion, and also apply my knowledge to real-world projects.
