Interdisciplinary Designer Specializing in Luxury Retail, Mixed-Used, Multi-Family Residential, and Office Conversion Architecture, Environmental Design, Placemaking, and Branding

 

As a project designer with a decade of diverse architectural project design experience, I am passionate about creating memorable and sustainable spaces that enhance the quality of life for people and communities. I have a BS in Architecture and Environmental Design from Morgan State University.

I have worked on various project types, including mixed-use, retail, senior living, multifamily housing, adaptive reuse, master planning, and environmental graphics, for reputable firms such as Ci Design and Streetsense. I have taken a lead role in the master planning, facade design, material selection, and presentation graphics, both 2D and 3D, for schematic design, design development, and construction document phases. I have also collaborated with internal and external teams, such as branding, signage, interiors, and landscape, to deliver holistic and integrated design solutions. I am proficient in Revit, Sketchup, Enscape, and Bluebeam Revu, and I have a keen graphic eye for design and visual communication.

I am dedicated to sharing my time and talents to promote diversity and inclusion in the profession. I have been a featured speaker at the "Placemakers" presentation series, and I have received the Morgan State University Distinguished Alumni Award for my extraordinary achievements and integrity. I have also provided pro-bono design, research, and visioning graphics for local community organizations. I am eager to join a dynamic and innovative design firm that values collaboration, creativity, and social responsibility.

As a creative, naturally I draw inspiration from many people and places. Some of my favorite architects are listed below.

Frank Lloyd Wright, Tadao Ando, Phil Freelon, Sasaki, Jeanne Gang, Bjarke Ingels, Zaha Hadid, Steven Holl, Rem Koolhaas,
Frank Gehry, and Liz Diller

If someone else approves of this new way of life, all the better.”
