About 

I'm a Graduate Student seeking an internship, entry-level position, or junior-level position within an architecture firm. I was born in India and later moved to Manchester, the UK to pursue a Bachelor's in Architecture. I am currently living in New York, the USA for my master's in Architecture. Throughout my journey, I have discovered a philosophy that entails design as a collective effort to react to Contemporary needs and future issues. I am a creative thinker seeking a career in architecture. Creation is my passion, whether it be participating in the everyday necessities of the construction process, or designing an intricate structure.
