Bachelor of Architecture
Boston Architectural College

Architecture is my passion and within I posses a strong drive to
include technology in the discovery of construction problems
and solutions to design. I am always searching for new and
innovative ways to improve existing systems and processes. I
believe that my exposure to various global cultures has given
me a firm grasp on the many possibilities of solving a single
problem and approaching these in several different ways. I look
to continue seeking new solutions and new challenges and as a
result continue growing as an architect and citizen of the world.
