My passion is architecture and computational design. I joined RDHA in 2021, bringing experience with architectural projects across various scales and sectors. My strong interest in sustainable design practices and capabilities in advanced computational tools have contributed to my professional and academic achievements. During my Master of Science in Bio-Integrated Design at University College London’s Bartlett School of Architecture, I focused on design for climate change and the utilization of advanced computation tools for optimizing building geometry. I received multiple academic awards at George Brown College and published an interview on Life Cycle Assessment in the CanBIM Innovation Spotlight Journal. I am hands-on when implementing BIM best practices, combining my deep knowledge of computational tools with my passion for architecture. As RDHA’s Director of Digital Practice, I manage BIM and documentation for RDHA’s largest and most complex projects, providing guidance to project teams from schematic design through to close-out on BIM workflow methodology, company BIM standards, and clash minimization to ensure efficient coordination with external consultants and other stakeholders. I am proficient in all current BIM-related software, including Revit, Navisworks, Rhino, and Dynamo, and have experience in 3D modeling, parametric design, 3D and 2D rendering, graphic software, HTML/CSS, and Python. When not at work, you can find me on my Honda CBR500R driving into the sunset.
