Summary

Enthusiastic Interior Architecture Graduate with excellent style, space, conceptualisation understanding and strong eye for detail. Interprets client demands and conveys ideas through model-making and presentations. Solution-focused creative thinker with knowledge in colour theory, materials, textures, sustainability and creating inclusive, community- oriented social spaces. Due to the extensive class presentations I had to undertake as part of my University course in order to showcase my work, I have gained strong presentation and communication skills. This has been an incredibly valuable experience as it allowed me to effectively communicate my vision and showcase the thought process behind my designs. I thrive in collaborative environments, love working closely with my peers, brainstorming, hearing different perspectives and incorporating them into our designs. It allows me to tap into a collective creativity, resulting in unique and impactful design solutions. Together we can combine our unique perspectives and expertise to deliver designs that are not only visually appealing but also functional and tailored to our clients' needs.
