About Me

My experience includes commercial, hospitality, educational, scientific (laboratory), healthcare, multi-family, and residential architecture and interiors as well as teaching university level design courses. My strengths lie in project management and communication and I excel in managing teams, inspiring decisiveness and reaching compromises. I am well versed in dealing with code issues, coordinating with governmental agencies, and have excellent organization skills and attention to details. I look forward to applying my diverse skill set to the next challenge.

I am currently working at RMW Architecture and Interiors in their San Jose office which specializes in high-tech commercial interiors, serve on the IIDA North California Chapter Board as co-VP of Professional Development, and support my alma mater on Alumni Panel for Interior Design program at San Jose State University.

Otherwise, I unsuccessfully try to stay away from the computer.
