About 

I am a third year architecture and environmental studies student at Rice University. I have passions for sustainable design, and the role of architecture in environmental and social justice. 

Employment 

Skidmore, Owings & Merrill (SOM), Chicago, IL, US, Architecture Intern

I participated in the ACE Mentorship program in high school, and earned a summer internship which I completed the summer before I started my first semester at Rice University. It was an extremely valauble experience where I had the opportunity to visit construction sights, sit in on meetings, and get an introduction to Rhino and other design programs. I was a major contributor to the construction of a model for a client in China, assisted in site analysis for another international project, and worked closely with construction documents.
