Available to hire
I am a PhD candidate in Architecture specializing in 3D printing, computational design, and sustainability. I work with earth-based composites, ceramics, and plastic filaments, and I bring advanced skills in digital/robotic fabrication, immersive 3D visualization, and AI-powered structural optimization for architecture, interiors, and product design.
I enjoy bridging architecture with materials science and cutting-edge fabrication to create environmentally responsible, resource-efficient designs. I collaborate across disciplines, present findings at conferences, and continuously explore new tools and methods to push the boundaries of design and manufacturing.
