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.

Inspiration
Shading
Design
Submitted for the UTSA Tennis Complex Design Competition, our proposal was centered on spatial height and integrated shading. Our goal was to provide the best experience for players. Prioritizing both performance and hospitality, we acoustically isolate court layouts to shield players from distractions, while elevated viewing platforms provide shaded, clear sightlines for the audience. In this project, I contributed to early ideas, renders, and elevation drawings.
