Designing for Community, Culture & Change
Send a job offer directly to this candidate
I’m a recent Environmental design with a specialization in Interior graduate at OCAD University, specializing in creating thoughtful, inclusive, and culturally responsive spaces. My design philosophy is rooted in the belief that interior environments can shape well-being, spark creativity, and foster community.
My passion lies in designing for diverse communities, with a deep appreciation for cultural heritage, storytelling, and biophilic principles. I’m inspired by how spaces can feel both deeply personal and universally welcoming—and I aim to bring that balance to every concept I touch.
I’m eager to grow within the design industry and collaborate with studios that value people, place, and purposeful design.
While I have not yet held a formal Environmental or interior design position yet, I’ve gained valuable hands-on experience through academic projects at OCAD University. These include:
Designing a Child and Youth Centre focused on mental health, inclusion, and community well-being
Developing detailed millwork drawings and layouts using industry-standard tools
Applying biophilic and culturally responsive design strategies in conceptual and technical work
Through these experiences, I’ve built a strong foundation in spatial thinking, client-centered design, and collaborative problem-solving, and I’m eager to apply these skills in a professional setting.
Bachelor of Design (Honours), Environmental Design – Interior Design Specialization
