May 2009 – August 2015 GRAPHIC SKILLS I believe architecture has the power to shape our lives; just as we shape the architecture we inhabit, it too shapes us. Successful architecture has the ability to improve the quality of life and strengthen communities. It must be more than it is expected to be. I consider myself a balanced, hard working, communicative individual, with a positive work ethic and outlook on life. I am focused and ambitious. I am keen to gain experience in industry as I continue my studies, with the ambition to become a chartered architect and work in developing countries developing economical, exciting architectural design solutions. Beyond architecture I enjoy photography, especially if it means I can be outside at the same time. I love to travel and be immersed in different cultures, to be pushed outside of my comfort zone and face new challenges.
