Hello, I am Desai! I recently graduated from Cornell University with a Bachelor of Architecture and Minor in Computer Science. I have extensive experience researching outdoor thermal comfort with the Cornell Environmental Systems Lab, and am currently investigating how design impacts urban microclimates and human thermal comfort in Singapore as a Fulbright researcher. Buildings and cities fascinate me, as do design and technology. I hope to combine my interests and contribute to a more sustainable future.

Environmental Performance InternKpf Jun 2022 - Aug 2022New York, New York, United StatesWorked closely with Environmental Performance Director Carlos Cerezo Davila and fellow intern Ben Tasistro-Hart to develop a grasshopper plug-in for embodied and operational carbon. Specifically, our plug-in aims to help designers understand how early stage design choices impact buildings' carbon footprints. We also created a workflow to automatically generate web-based visual reports from the carbon analysis.
