About Me
As a second-year B.Arch student at USC, I explore how progressive material strategies and walkable urban design can reshape our cities. My work focuses on environmental performance, site-specific materiality, and public-realm integration to foster sustainable, pedestrian-centered urban environments.

Song: Heavy - The Marias This animation compiles four separate pieces created for a previous assignment into a single, cohesive narrative. I selected the soundtrack to evoke a surreal atmosphere, leaning into the cosmic, planetary themes of my earlier work. I wanted to build an immersive void that draws the viewer in. To tie the distinct segments together, I applied a unified white pixelation effect across all four sequences. This project allowed me to experiment with new software that could showcase my ideas.
