About
I am a dual-degree graduate student in the Master of Architecture and Master of Science in Architecture programs at the University of Arizona, with a background in Art History, Economics, and International Studies from Queen’s University.
My academic and professional interests sit between architectural design, visual communication, emerging building technologies, digital workflows, and interdisciplinary research. My previous experience in exhibition curation, photography, hospitality, and project coordination has shaped how I approach space, material culture, public engagement, and the translation of ideas into physical and visual form.
I am currently building my experience in architecture, design research, 3D modeling, rendering, digital fabrication, and AI-supported architectural workflows. I am interested in opportunities related to architectural internships, design assistance, research, visualization, exhibition design, and emerging building technologies.
