Greetings Class and Becky!

I am an east coast native currently living in Brooklyn. I studied architecture as an undergrad at Barnard College here in NYC and having been working in the field for the last 15 years. I spent years (and years and years) thinking about going back to grad school and am excited to be finally doing it with you all.

I love the challenge of designing small spaces so if you need help getting everything to fit efficiently in a teeny-tiny apartment, let me know! The smaller the better!

Speaking of small, I have a mini dachshund named Lulu that I hope will  get to visit the studio soon.
