What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can apply computational design and automation to façade systems, collaborate with multidisciplinary teams, and grow in digital fabrication and BIM-driven workflows.

I am a computational designer with a Master's in Architecture focused on design computation and façade automation. I blend Rhino, Grasshopper, C#, and Revit to develop efficient virtual design and modeling workflows.

My work has automated architectural facade virtual design processes using Grasshopper, C#, Rhino, Autodesk Revit, and Autodesk Inventor for commercial and research projects. I have hands-on experience producing construction documents and digital fabrication-ready models.

I have professional experience across firms and freelance roles, including MG McGrath Architectural Surfaces, N-RG Cladding, Forsberg’s Inc., and Niemann Design-Build, and I contributed to both design and IT/data digitization tasks.

I bring international study and travel experience, professional French language ability, and extracurricular strengths in computational systems, programming, and fabrication—skills I apply to produce precise, automated design solutions.
