Mission Statement
The reason why I practice architecture is to see the influence that a building would have in the context of the city and how it would affect the experience of the occupants. Through the process of design, I also get to see how the project enhances the environment and how new technology can provide for better building performance. Since each city is different, each project gives me the challenge of creating something new and unique that is specific to the location of the project. It also gives me the opportunity to use creativity in finding new ways to solve design related issues and fulfills my passion for designing, which has always been a part of who I am. Through my studies in Europe and Asia, I have broadened my understanding of architecture and related it to how it affects others in different parts of the world. I realized that even though some different principles apply, the same intent of architecture is relevant, to provide a shelter to house people. Ultimately, this gives my work in architecture meaning by wanting to design buildings for others to occupy and give them a sense of ownership of the building.
