Michelle Villegas

I am a Bachelor of Science in Architecture graduate with hands-on experience in project management, architectural design, and interior fit-out execution. I have handled projects from concept to completion, including residential interiors, cabinetry design, and commercial spaces such as clinics. My work involves both design development and on-site coordination, allowing me to ensure that ideas are translated accurately into built spaces.

I am detail-oriented, adaptable, and committed to delivering functional and well-executed design solutions.
