I'm here to bring you fresh energy
I'm pivoting from my engineering career to my passion: design. I'm looking for entry level opportunities to work hard, learn fast, and make an impact. Seeking a passionate design assistant or intern ready to contribute and grow? Let's connect!
about me
After earning my computer engineering degree from University of Maryland, a software engineering internship at NASA Goddard Spaceflight Center, and building a career in tech at Microsoft for 4 years, I'm pivoting toward my true passion: design. With a foundation in managing complex cross functional stakeholders to deliver success against business metrics on tight timelines, technical skills, defining creative solutions, artistic creativity, influencing without authority, and learning like dynamite, I’m looking for experiences where I can grow, contribute, and bring a fresh perspective to the world of architecture and interiors. I'm actively seeking opportunities as a design assistant or intern in the D.C. area. This website will be continuously updated as my portfolio develops.
Skills and Experiences
My background helped me develop skills that distinguish me from other candidates
I have real-world, high-stakes, professional project experience managing complexity, deadlines, collaboration, and directly working with clients on multi-hundred-million dollar contracts with companies that include Walmart and Adobe.I've lived the reality that projects never go exactly according to plan and I've learned to adapt with agility through critical thinking. I won't freeze when unexpected issues come up (delays, changes, budget cuts) — I'll find smart solutions.I already know how to work across teams: engineers, designers, clients, marketing i.e different people with different needs.

I Learn Fast!
I'm currently learning autocad
I’m currently learning to create professional interior floor plans using AutoCAD. This is my first project I created by leveraging YouTube tutorials. In June, I'll be starting more in depth online classes through Parsons School of Design.Once I refine interior floor plans, I plan to expand into:
Interior elevations (showing wall finishes, cabinetry, built-ins)Reflected ceiling plans (lighting and ceiling layouts)Furniture and finish plansBasic millwork drawings (for custom cabinetry, shelving, built-ins)Dimensioning and annotating for client and contractor clarity

I was born an artist
I've been painting, drawing, sculpting, writing, designing, analyzing, and developing my visual prowess since the womb. This is a digital painting I made of my roommate using Procreate on my ipad. It took me 30 hours. I have many more examples I'd love to share with you.
