After earning my Bachelor of Fine Arts in Interior Architecture and Design from Marywood University in 2014, I gained industry experience working on various department store and high-end retail projects at a design firm in Syracuse, NY. I later moved to Boston, MA where I worked at an interior architecture firm focusing on corporate office and restaurant design. In 2018, I moved to Charlotte, NC and started at SPI as a designer.
