Why is architecture special to you?

Architecture is special to me because one can create and design almost anything. These creations are share to our communities and help create a better bond between people. 

What do you hope to accomplish as an architect/designer in the future?

What I hope to accomplish as an architect/designer in the future is to create equal opportunities for everyone through the projects I work on. Historically we have seen that marginalized communities have not gotten and still are not getting the resources that should be accessible to all. I want to push this idea of accessibility and equity through my architecture career. 

What is something you are looking forward to in design school this year?

Something I am looking forward to in design school this semester is the in-depth learning of programs such as Autodesk 3D Max, VRay for Enscape, and Revit.

“In the fall, I designed a psychiatry office that serves both children and adults. It is nestled in Butte County, California, which has suffered immensely from wildfires. My color scheme is derived from exposure therapy, which will allow patients to become comfortable with their fears in a safe and controlled environment. I am grateful to curate spaces that serve such a wonderful purpose for a community. “
