I completed my Master of Architecture (M. Arch II) from Southern California Institute of Architecture (SCI-Arc), Los Angeles, USA in September 2017. I have been working ever since as an architectural designer in Los Angles. I enjoy working on both the creative side of architecture including concept design and out-of-the-box thinking as well as the technical side like detailing and design development while also producing construction documents.
With over 4 years of professional experience, I have had the privilege to intern and learn under the expertise of Sir Peter Cook and Gavin Robotham at CRAB Studio in London, UK for 6 months in 2014-15 following which I was offered a job as Graduate Architect to continue working with CRAB Studio through POPULOUS Design in New Delhi. During my time at SCI-Arc I have had the valuable opportunity to intern at Gensler, Los Angeles. Since graduating I have worked as a Designer at AUX Architecture on cultural, commercial and residential projects. My most recent role is as a Designer II at Johnson Fain in Los Angeles working on a wide range of high-rise, mixed-use, multi family and other projects.
