A graduate from UC Berkeley’s College of Environmental Design with a B.A. in Urban Studies ('26), I am passionate about the everyday activities in cities. My interests in the built environment are guided by the belief that careful interventions can both repair past harm and build climate resilience for the future. With minors in Sustainable Design and Social & Cultural Factors in Environmental Design, I bring a multidisciplinary lens to each project, pairing spatial thinking with questions of culture, governance, and environmental performance.

Recent work has explored shoreline adaptation, contaminated-fill remediation, and housing in the Bay Area, where I use diagrams, models, and narrative to make complex systems legible to non-experts. I have contributed to research with the Urban Displacement Project and supported outreach efforts for SF Bay Ferry, Amtrak Capitol Corridor/Gold Runner, and Caltrain, experiences that deepened my understanding of how mobility, access, and land use shape each other across scales. An internship with Ruhnau Clarke Architects further exposed me to the realities of practice and development of Revit and AutoCAD skills.

Outside the studio, I work part-time at entertainment venues such as the Greek Theatre, which keeps me close to the energy of large public gatherings and informs how I think about performer and crowd flow, safety, and the atmosphere of shared spaces. I serve as the editor-in-chief of a cultural literary publication, working to tell stories about identity and place. Volunteering with domestic violence awareness organizations and animal shelters keeps my work grounded in care and mutual aid, reminding me that design choices always land in real people’s lives. Across these experiences, I am driven by a love of learning and a conviction that thoughtful, context-sensitive design can make cities more accessible, collaborative, and bright.
