About
I am a recent graduate from the NewSchool of Architecture and Design and Domus Academy program Interior Architecture and Design. I use Sketchup with Maxwell Render, Revit, 3DsMax, AutoCAD, most of the Adobe Creative suites programs including After Effects and Premier, and I have some experience in Rhino. I believe that when you have a firm understanding of what design is and how design can be utilized, you can work in any area of design. I am fascinated with the user experience design, product design and industrial design industries. I am currently employed at a large company in San Diego as a Space Planner for the facilities department.
