About 

Designer talented in multidisciplinary work, ranging from technical, sculptural, fabrication, visualization, interior, architectural, urban, virtual, and even non-human species. I am a recent graduate of Pratt's B.Arch program. I am a fast learner who's always intrigued by new ideas and technology. I am looking for a respectable team to work with for a long term and to synergize our potential together!
