Hello, I am
Architecture Student — City Tech
I am an Architectural Technology student at the New York City College of Technology, completing my Bachelor of Technology in Architecture in Fall 2026.
Prior to City Tech, I earned an Associate of Science in Engineering Science from Borough of Manhattan Community College, where I developed a strong technical and analytical foundation before transitioning into architecture.
My education has allowed me to explore architecture across design, building technology, visualization, and technical documentation. Through these experiences, I have developed an interest in creating thoughtful, context-responsive spaces while understanding how design ideas translate into constructible buildings.
As I complete my undergraduate studies, I am excited to continue developing as a designer through professional practice, bringing curiosity, technical knowledge, and a willingness to learn to each new project.

05 — Hand drafting · Pencil on paper
Drawing by hand is where I learned to think in plan, section, and detail. These sheets were drafted entirely by hand — working drawings for a small lakeside pavilion, and orthographic studies of solid forms.
