GET A START, MAKE A LIVING, AND GAIN EXPERIENCE.
Design + project management for others provided me over 10 years of experience in planning, design and construction of unique landmark projects. I have worked for both architect and developer doing everything and anything needed to bring these one of a kind visions to life.
Having a degree in art history, with an emphasis in sculpture, and an architect as a mother, I was warned not to go into architecture. Nonetheless I ended up working for a landscape architect/DJ, followed by 5 years in a boutique architecture firm. Realizing my mom was right, there is no money in working for an architect unless you have money to start your own firm, I obtained a certificate in construction management from UCLA and transitioned into a real estate development. I worked for a small developer converting downtown LA warehouses to artist lofts, and gained 5 years experience with a young innovative startup company developing commercial and residential projects throughout LA and the Midwest.
