One thing I love about being an architect is the identity that is tied with the profession. As an architect, you sign up for a life beyond the nine-to-five. You sign up to be a 24/7 thinker, designer, and advocate for the built environment.
I bring to the architectural profession diverse expertise in design and a unique perspective on the built environment that stems from my backgrounds in engineering, the liberal arts, and architecture. I pride myself on having a comprehensive set of design and management skills that is reflected in the different markets, typologies, and project scales I have experienced over the past 5+ years.
My design acumen is strengthened by my unique investment in the architectural profession. I have spent years of research and practice to become an expert on the social consequences of the built environment. While I was a graduate student, I discovered my passion for studying architecture’s role in the aftermath of tragedy. Eventually, this interest manifested into a thesis that proposes how designers can best serve emotionally charged sites, which is also a course that I taught at the Boston Architectural College.
Additionally, I involve myself with various mentoring opportunities through the architectural professional. Currently, I am a mentee within the Chicago Bridge Mentorship Program and I volunteer as a mentor for the Illinois Institute of Technology WING Mentorship Program.
