About Me
I am a driven Master of Architecture graduate from Columbia University, committed to exploring how design innovation, sustainability, and emerging technologies can meaningfully intersect to shape the future of the built environment. In addition to my academic work, I serve as an Adjunct Instructor at Dunwoody College of Technology, where I guide students through foundational design principles, technical skill-building, and critical thinking, fostering the next generation of architects and designers. My experience spans a diverse range of roles, from contributing editorial work within Columbia University's academic community to conducting research at renowned firms such as Gensler. These opportunities have allowed me to engage deeply with both theoretical and practice-based architectural discourse, refining my ability to communicate complex ideas, analyze evolving industry trends, and contribute to forward-thinking design solutions. Driven by curiosity and a commitment to meaningful impact, I aspire to advance conversations around architecture's role in addressing contemporary challengeswhether environmental, technological, or socialand to participate in shaping a more resilient, equitable, and innovative built world.
Hobbies & Interests
Outside of my academic and professional endeavors, I am passionate about exploring diverse cultures and languages. I am fluent in both English and Ga, and I enjoy immersing myself in different linguistic landscapes. My curiosity extends to technology and its potential to drive positive change in society. I actively engage in projects that harness the power of data analytics and design to address real-world challenges, as demonstrated by my internship experience with Microsoft. In my leisure time, I find joy in creative pursuits such as graphic design and digital art. I believe in the power of art to inspire and communicate ideas, and I enjoy experimenting with different mediums to express my creativity. Additionally, I am an advocate for sustainability and environmental stewardship, often seeking opportunities to contribute to initiatives that promote eco-conscious practices in architecture and beyond. Overall, my interests and hobbies reflect my diverse passions and my commitment to making a meaningful impact through both my professional work and personal endeavors. I also enjoy playing tennis, running, cooking, and baking!
