“Sitting by drafting boards since I was 3 years old, and drawing floor plans by grade 3, I was attracted to architecture from a very early age. As I grew older I looked forward to an opportunity to be creative and challenge myself in that regards, whether it be a hypothetical fantastical project in a Virginia ghost town, or a residential building in an alley way in Berlin. Challenging my creativity is what drives me to better myself. Design has always been a part of who I am as I re-imagined space around me, and I am always interested in learning new things and broadening my horizons.”
