I am a Meredith College Interior Design student in Raleigh, NC, set to graduate in May 2025. I am passionate about designing functional, safe, and aesthetically engaging interior spaces that improve everyday life. I quickly grasp new design concepts and translate ideas into clear, compelling visual and technical presentations, using a mix of hand-sketching, 3D modeling, and digital tools to communicate outcomes. Beyond class, I volunteer and collaborate with community organizations, including The Green Chair Project and St. Mary Coptic Orthodox Church, where I help plan living-space vignettes, organize exhibits, and support educational programs. I value teamwork, effective communication with clients and stakeholders, and opportunities to learn from mentors in architecture, design, and community service.
