I am a Job Captain / Architectural Designer who is passionate about designing inclusive, comfortable, and aesthetically pleasing spaces for clients and their end-users. Working on a few different types of Architecture; primarily Academic, Retail, Commercial, and Residential TI’s, as well as Wineries and Medical Laboratory spaces, I have become comfortable working on smaller fast-paced projects. This said I look forward to being exposed to more complex and larger projects in the future.
While at Waterleaf Architecture, I primarily focused on the development of construction documents, details, and both digital and physical modeling of multiple wineries, along with design development and product research. I was also tasked with as-builting and preparing LOD’s for retail spaces at Lloyd Center, and a few small design/build projects throughout the center.
I plan on continuing to finish my NCARB AXP hours, primarily within the Practice Management, Project Management, and Construction & Evaluation categories, while continuing to study for the NCARB exams.
