CPHC · Architectural Designer
Location Rochester, NY

Architectural designer with a performance-first foundation.

I'm an architectural designer with a Master of Architecture from Rochester Institute of Technology's Golisano Institute for Sustainability, and a Bachelor of Architecture from Sri Venkateshwara College of Architecture in Hyderabad, India. I'm a Phius Certified Passive House Consultant (CPHC) — a credential I pursued because I believe energy performance and building science are inseparable from good architectural practice.

My professional experience at Northline Architects gave me hands-on Revit production work across commercial interiors, residential additions, and a community bank renovation — including on-site field measurement visits where I recorded existing conditions from scratch. I know what it means to receive a set of redlines at 4pm and have a clean PDF ready before end of day.

My academic work at RIT focused on adaptive reuse, passive design strategies, and community-scale civic design — developed within a sustainability-focused graduate program where envelope performance and daylight analysis were integrated into every studio project.

I'm looking for a position at a firm where technical rigor and design quality coexist — where learning the craft of documentation is valued, and where the work connects to broader questions of how buildings perform, endure, and serve the people who use them.
